“…The starting temperature of the thermal decomposition of PP‐ g ‐MAH is higher than that of PP, and the main reason is that PP‐ g ‐MAH disrupts the crystal region regularity of PP, which leads to the increase of the thermal decomposition temperature of PP‐ g ‐MAH. [ 14 ]…”

Enhancing the mechanical properties of fiber metal laminate by surface treatment

Fiber‐metal laminates with high toughness and high strength have become an important direction for the development of new materials in the future. During the production and service process of fiber‐metal laminates, brittle fracture and interlaminate damage are easily caused by low load, which leads to the instability and damage to the overall structure. This article mainly studies the effects of surface treatment process, and material combination on the mechanical properties of glass fiber/polypropylene (PP)/stainless steel mesh (SSM) composite laminates. It is shown that the adhesion force of the phosphating SSM sample is 1.73 times that of the etched sample, and the bonding effect with organic substances is relatively better. The laminate with the structure of “unetched SSM + maleic anhydride grafted polypropylene + aminosilane glass fiber fabric” had the best tensile load. The etched and phosphatized SSM enhanced the interface adhesive effect with PP‐g‐MAH, thereby improving the overall structural strength of the laminate.

“…Thus the top layer was cracked during the load transfer and failed to stop the fast moving impactor. [19] But it is noticed that in the composite designation EO2 (Figure 5E,F) the damage on the top and bottom is typically lesser on compare with EM2 and EN2. The alternate layering of both Kevlar and wire mesh finely dissipates the load more uniformly and arrested the moving of impactor.…”

Kevlar fiber and brass wire mesh reinforced with cubic boron nitride (CBN) particle-toughened epoxy composites are investigated in this study. This study aims to determine the hybrid composite's mechanical and drop load impact behavior, as well as the effect of surface treatment on the lamina delamination resistance and load bearing phenomenon. The composite laminates were fabricated by hand layup process and characterized according to ASTM standards. The tensile, flexural, Izod impact, ILSS, and hardness testing results shows that adding 35 vol% reinforcements and 3.0 vol% CBN particles indicates the

“…[6][7][8] As a load-bearing component of the suspension system, the GF-PP control arm performed better than steel, according to Anandakumar et al 9 A huge amount of studies investigated the effect of the GF on the tensile behavior of polymeric matrix-based composites. [10][11][12][13] The main objective of the current literature is to focus on studies dealing with thermoplastic polymer matrix composites, especially those that have a PP matrix. Bowyer and Bader 14 used PP with different GF volume fractions prepared by injection molding using an end gate technique and found that as the volume fraction of GF increases the strength of the composite increases.…”

Glass fiber reinforced polypropylene (GF-PP) composites have proven a great potential in the designation and manufacturing of control arms, leaf springs, barriers, beams and bridge decks. Two-pass injection molding of GF-PP was investigated in this study. Polypropylene (PP) was injected with different weight fractions (w%) of chopped glass fibers (GFs) with different fiber feedstock lengths (FFSLs). The composites were then crushed and re-injected once again. Some specimens were burned out to check the actual weight fractions and fiber lengths after the injection processes. The fiber lengths dramatically decreased due to damages during two-pass injection processes and crushing. The manufactured specimens were tested in tension, and the results indicated that the tensile strength increased slightly at w = 10% of GF. Further increase of GF weight fraction leads to a drop in the tensile strength below neat PP. The results of SEM micrographs showed an increase in air voids concentrations at high GF percentages which clarifies the reason behind the drop in the tensile strength. Also, in-plane shear tests were carried out using the Iosipescu fixture where a slight increase in the in-plane shear strength was noticed by increasing fiber weight fractions. In-plane shear moduli of all specimens were measured experimentally by strain gauges and calculated theoretically. The shear modulus was enhanced by glass fiber addition and a further increase was noticed by increasing the fiber weight fractions.
