Damage-tolerant behavior of structural epoxies with thin PEI and PVDF interlayers

Damage-tolerant behavior of structural epoxies with thin PEI and PVDF interlayers

This work examines the crack-arresting capability of PEI and PVDF thermoplastic interlayers in short-glass fiber modified and core–shell rubber toughened epoxy materials under mode-I fracture loading. Experimental results show that the initial crack can be effectively arrested by the thermoplastic-e...
