The effect of aspect ratio of inclusions on the elastic properties of unidirectionally aligned composites Tập 5 Số 4 - Trang 327-333 - 1984
G. P. Tandon, George J. Weng
AbstractThis paper examines the influence of aspect ratio α, from zero to infinity, on the effective elastic moduli of a transversely isotropic composite. The reinforcing inclusions, which could be flakes or short fibers, are assumed to be spheroidal and unidirectionally aligned. Of the five independent elastic constants, the longitudinal Young's modulus ... hiện toàn bộ
Surface characterization of flax, hemp and cellulose fibers; Surface properties and the water uptake behavior Tập 23 Số 5 - Trang 872-894 - 2002
Alexander Bismarck, Ibon Aranberri, Jürgen Springer, Thomas Lampke, B. Wielage, Artemis Stamboulis, Ilya G. Shenderovich, Hans‐Heinrich Limbach
AbstractThe surface characteristics of several natural fibers—flax, hemp and cellulose—were investigated using scanning electron microscopy, BET‐surface area and zeta (ζ‐) potential measurements. ζ‐Potential measurements using the streaming potential method were performed in order to study the water uptake behavior as well as the surface properties of several natur...... hiện toàn bộ
Kinetic studies of thermoset cure reactions: A review Tập 18 Số 2 - Trang 157-168 - 1997
Azizeh‐Mitra Yousefi, Pierre G. Lafleur, R. Gauvin
AbstractThis article presents a review of the kinetic studies on the cure reactions of thermosetting resins. The emphasis is placed on those conducted using the thermal analysis by differential scanning calorimetry. Two important categories of kinetic models are discussed and some existing parameter estimation techniques are presented. A variety of factors affectin...... hiện toàn bộ
Investigation of basalt fiber composite mechanical properties for applications in transportation Tập 27 Số 1 - Trang 41-48 - 2006
Qiang Liu, Montgomery T. Shaw, Richard S. Parnas, Anne‐Marie McDonnell
AbstractNew materials offer the promise of innovative applications in transportation. One such new material is basalt fiber, which is used in other industries because of documented strengths [Ramakrishnan et al., “Performance Evaluation of 3‐D Basalt Fiber Reinforced Concrete and Basalt Rod Reinforced Concrete,” NCHRP‐IDEA Program Project Final Report<...... hiện toàn bộ
Microcrystalline cellulose reinforced polylactic acid biocomposite filaments for 3D printing Tập 39 Số 4 - Trang 1311-1320 - 2018
Caroline A. Murphy, Maurice N. Collins
The aim of this study was to produce a novel microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) reinforced polylactic acid (PLA), fully degradable biocomposites for 3D printing applications. The biocomposites were produced in filament form by solvent casting and twin screw extrusion to achieve final concentrations of 1, 3, and 5 wt% of cellulose. In order to improve compatibility with the PLA, the cellulose...... hiện toàn bộ
Thermally conductive silicone rubber reinforced with boron nitride particle Tập 28 Số 1 - Trang 23-28 - 2007
Wenying Zhou, Shuhua Qi, Hongzhen Zhao, Nailiang Liu
AbstractThermally conductive silicone rubber used as elastomeric thermal pad is successfully developed with boron nitride powder as conductive filler. The effects of content and particle size of filler on the thermal conductivity and mechanical property of silicone rubber are investigated. The results indicate that the use of hybrid boron nitride with three differe...... hiện toàn bộ
Thermal conductivity of silicone rubber filled with ZnO Tập 28 Số 2 - Trang 125-130 - 2007
Qiuhong Mu, Shengyu Feng, Guangzhao Diao
AbstractThermal conductivities of silicone rubber filled with ZnO in a wide volume range were measured in order to study the effect of formed conductive particle chains on thermal conductivities. With the increasing of content of ZnO particles in silicone rubber, the amount of formed conductive chains increases and the conductive chains tend linearly to increase th...... hiện toàn bộ
Recycling of the fibrous fraction of reinforced thermoset composites Tập 23 Số 4 - Trang 682-689 - 2002
C. E. Kouparitsas, C. N. Kartalis, P.C. Varelidis, Christos Tsenoglou, C. D. Papaspyrides
AbstractWe investigate the feasibility of reusing short fibers recovered from recycled thermoset composites for the production of new composites. Glass fibers were recovered from glass‐polyester composites, and carbon and aramide fibers from epoxy based composites. From the different fractions obtained after grinding, a specific fibrous fraction was selected for re...... hiện toàn bộ
Poly(aryl‐ether‐ether‐ketone) and its advanced composites: A review Tập 8 Số 2 - Trang 57-73 - 1987
Nguyễn Xuân Huy, Hatsuo Ishida
AbstractPoly(aryl‐ether‐ether‐ketone) or PEEK is a highly aromatic semi‐crystalline thermoplastic. Its good mechanical properties and solvent resistances rank it as one of the most promising matrix polymers for high performance composites. This article attempts to provide an in‐depth review of work on PEEK and fiber‐reinforced PEEK composites. Discussions on variou...... hiện toàn bộ
Plastic composites for electromagnetic interference shielding applications Tập 4 Số 1 - Trang 40-46 - 1983
D. M. Bigg, D.E. Stutz
AbstractResearch in the past eight years has established the ability of polymer composites made with sufficient electrical conductivity to be suitable as shields against electromagnetic interference (EMI). A number of conductive fillers have been used to produce such composites. These include carbon black, carbon fibers, metal fibers, metal flakes, and metal‐coated...... hiện toàn bộ
