This book was released on 2011 with total page 67 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This project is about mechanical characterization of high performance, structural composite materials. Within the context of this project, a commercial, now available epoxy resin reinforced with carbon nanotubes (CNT’s) was compared with a high performance commercially available epoxy resin, also using unidirectional carbon fiber as reinforcement agent. CNT’s are a relatively new, interesting topic to study within the materials science, and because of the potential shown in previous studies, are of utter importance for critical structural applications, such as those found in the aerospace industry. During this project previous references were studied and used as comparison material to design the methodological framework followed in this work. To observe CNT’s benefits, samples tailored to American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) standards were manufactured and tested in order to quantify the mechanical properties discussed in this. ASTM standards provide both the sample dimension requirements and the testing procedure to be followed in order to obtain reliable, organized, meaningful data from proposed tests. Tensile, shear and flexural strain-strength tests were performed in samples using both kinds of resins. Data collected from tests was organized, plotted and analyzed to understand mechanical behavior of the samples during the tests. Main engineering values such as ultimate tensile strength, engineering stress, young’s modulus, shear strength and so were gathered and documented in this project. CNT’s reinforced epoxy samples outperformed the common epoxy samples in general, showing a better behavior as seen in the deformation energy absorbed in the samples in each test. It is encouraged to keep the research on the CNT’s topic as a promising and relevant technology called to grow in use and performance in the future, as well as to expand and improve the difficulties and limitations found in this project. This project shows that even when using a low CNT’s content as reinforcement agent within the matrix, evaluated mechanical properties are effectively enhanced, making the CNT’s a good candidate for future composite material components where weight saving and better structural mechanical performance is needed.

This book was released on 2021 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract : Huntsman-Merrimack MIRALON® carbon nanotubes (CNT's) are a novel, highly entangled, commercially available, and scalable format of nanotubes. As-received and acid-treated CNT's were added to aerospace grade epoxy (CYCOM® 977-3) and the composites were characterized. The epoxy resin is expected to infiltrate the network of the CNT's and could improve mechanical properties. Epoxy composites were tested for flexural and viscoelastic properties and the as-received and acid treated CNT's were characterized using field-emission scanning and transmission electron microscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, and Raman and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Composites containing 0.4 wt% as-received CNT's showed an increase in flexural strength, from 136.9 MPa for neat epoxy to 147.5 MPa. In addition, the flexural modulus increased from 3.88 GPa for the neat epoxy to 4.24 GPa and 4.49 GPa for the 2.0 wt% and 3.0 wt% as-received CNT/epoxy composites, respectively. FE-SEM micrographs indicated good dispersion of the CNT's in the epoxy composites containing as-received CNT's and CNT's treated for 6 hours in 10 M nitric acid at 120 °C. CNT's treated with 10 M nitric acid for 6 hours at 120 °C added oxygen containing functional groups (C-O, C=O, and O=C-O) and removed iron catalyst present on the as-received CNT's, but the flexural properties of to the as-received CNT/epoxy composites. As-received and highly entangled Huntsman-Merrimack MIRALON® CNT sock materials (HGR and/or X55 grades) were added to unidirectional Hexcel HexTow IM7 carbon fiber/Solvay CYCOM® 977-3 epoxy prepreg system and the hybrid composites were characterized for tensile, flexural, and short beam shear properties. The incorporation of 1 CNT sock layer interleaving all of the CF/epoxy prepreg layers in the layup did not improve either the 0° or 90° tensile or flexural properties of the composite. Additionally, there was no improvement in the interlaminar shear strength of the hybrid composites, when 1, 2, or 3 CNT sock layers (HGR and X55 grades) were added between each CF/epoxy prepreg layer

Book excerpt: An exploratory characterization program was conducted on one high-modulus unidirectional composite, carbon fiber reinforced epoxy. Existing test methods were used with minimum modification except in the cases of dynamic moduli and flexural fatigue strength where new methods were developed. The test methods were generally satisfactory. Two notable exceptions were the short-beam shear test for determining interlaminar shear strength and the flat plate test for static shear modulus.
