Matrix Hybridization in the Interlayer for Carbon Fiber Reinforced Composites
Polymeric composites have gone through a level of maturity beyond the laboratory stage with the development of the Boeing 787, the structure of which contains more than 50% composites. Nonetheless, a basic understanding of the material used in its primary structure has not been extensively investiga...

description | Polymeric composites have gone through a level of maturity beyond the laboratory stage with the development of the Boeing 787, the structure of which contains more than 50% composites. Nonetheless, a basic understanding of the material used in its primary structure has not been extensively investigated. For instance, micromechanical models are inadequate as they always assume an evenly distributed homogeneous matrix, without following classic lamination theory, which assumes constant stress through the laminate thickness. Our program now in its third year at the Polymeric Composites Laboratory in Seattle, supported by industry as well as government agencies, and in collaboration with several universities on a global scale, is developing such concepts for understanding and improving matrices in layered configurations. This effort focuses on the development of interlayer systems used as enablers to improve certain properties of the composite, such as fracture-toughness and crack-propagation inhibition. POLYM. COMPOS., 31:1965–1976, 2010. |
