Random distribution of interphase characteristics on the overall electro-mechanical properties of CNT piezo nanocomposite: Micromechanical modeling and Monte Carlo simulation
A phenomenological study is carried out to speculate the statistical impacts of the CNT/polymer interphase on the overall electro-elastic behavior of piezo-polymer nanocomposites by presenting a full-field micromechanical model. The nanocomposite system consists of carbon nanotube (CNT) and PVDF. Various statistical distributions, including Weibull, log-normal, normal, beta, and uniform distributions on the thickness and strength of the interphase are carefully assessed. The results are compared with experimental data, and satisfactory agreements are reported. It is found that, compared to the random distribution of the interphase strength, the statistical distribution of the interphase thickness has more effect on the overall electro-elastic properties. For example, for the effective longitudinal modulus, the overall coefficients of variation are 14 %, 13 %, 13.56, and 10 %, respectively, for the normal, Weibull, beta, and uniform distributions of the thickness compared with the measured experimental values. Also, the effects of the CNT content, aspect ratio, and orientation on the effective electro-elastic properties by considering the various random distributions are fully examined. Moreover, using the Monte Carlo simulation, the probability of not meeting design specification (failure probability) is evaluated at the random distributions of the interphase strength and thickness to identify the optimum CNT content for which the values of the overall properties are maximum. It is obtained that the failure probabilities are different for 5–8 % CNT volume fraction in the distributions of the thickness, and for only 5 VF% CNT in the strength distributions. For other values of the CNT content, the failure probabilities are independent of the distribution of the interphase strength and thickness.
