“…Residual stresses in composites during the curing stage can lead to component deformation [5][6][7], which is the result of composites being affected by numerous factors during the curing process, including intrinsic factors such as material anisotropy, asymmetric structure, curing shrinkage of the resin, and extrinsic factors such as non-uniformity of the pressure and temperature fields and mold influences. Among them, the more influential factors include thermal expansion of the resin, chemical shrinkage, holding time, curing temperature, and holding pressure [8][9][10][11][12].…”

In the present study, we investigated the deformation of polyurethane composite solar cell bezels during the curing process. To address the problem of deformation, thermochemical and curing kinetics models were developed to investigate the mechanical behavior of the resin during the curing process. The importance of the influencing factors was determined through orthogonal experiments and simulation analysis. The results showed that holding pressure had a significant effect on the amount of deformation of the bezel, followed by curing temperature, pultrusion speed, and holding time. The optimal combination of process parameters was a curing temperature of 150 °C, a pultrusion speed of 50 cm/min, a holding time of 12 s, and a holding pressure of 0.14 MPa, which aided in significantly reducing the deformation of the bezel and achieving effective control of curing deformation.

“…Compared with traditional thermosetting composites [ 1 , 2 , 3 ], continuous-fiber-reinforced thermoplastic composites are recyclable, in line with the concepts of low carbon and environmental protection, and also afford a fast molding speed and good impact toughness. Continuous-fiber-reinforced thermoplastic prepregs have no storage conditions.…”

In this study, in order to expand the engineering application range of thermoplastic corrugated sheets, flame-retardant thermoplastic corrugated sheets were prepared by the thermoplastic molding method. Based on our previous research results, we prepared flame-retardant prepreg tapes with the flame retardant addition accounting for 15%, 20%, and 25% of the resin matrix. Then, we prepared flame-retardant thermoplastic corrugated sandwich panels with corresponding flame retardant addition amounts. The limiting oxygen index test, vertical combustion test, cone calorimetry test, and mechanical property test were carried out on each group of samples and control group samples. The results showed that when the flame retardant was added at 25%, the flame retardant level could reach the V0 level. Compared with the control group, the flexural strength and flexural modulus decreased by 2.6%, 14.1%, and 19.9% and 7.3%, 16.1%, and 21.9%, respectively. When the amount of flame retardant was 15%, 20%, and 25%, respectively, the total heat release decreased by 16.3%, 23.5%, and 34.1%, and the maximum heat release rate decreased by 12.5%, 32.4%, and 37.4%, respectively.

“…Additionally, other important concerns about the tooling material are the thermal cycle durability and wear resistance [15]. Several studies related with the experimental investigation of the tool/part interface were conducted to determine durability and perform life cycle assessment [15][16][17][18]. Corresponding studies showed that Ni electroplating with sulphamate solution reveals lower damage to human health than four wellknown different thermal spraying processes (wirearc, plasma, high velocity oxygen fuel (HVOF) and cold spray) which is of signifance for manufacturers of aerospace platforms.…”

The main scope of this work is the metallization of high density Acryonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) surfaces for aerospace applications. Originality and main focused area of the study is to grasp the mechanism of physical properties of the surface and the effect of wet chemical processes on the surface of the ABS substrate. After surface sensitization and metallization with nano-sized ions, the polyurethane surface is metallized and nickel (Ni) coated with electroless and elecrolytic Ni plating processes. The ultimate goal of these advances is the production of composite lay-up tools for the production of primary and secondary composite aircraft parts from nanoscale to macro level. Composite lay-up tool requirements of the aerospace industry include a minimum thickness of 5 mm, acceptability of airtightness testing and reduced surface roughness. Results show that increasing current density adversely affects the surface morphology and metallization processes enhance the surface conductivity of the foam.
