This paper aims to improve the accuracy of the finite element analysis for the preform shape transformation according to the difference in the type of carbon fiber and friction force. The carbon fiber type (Toray T700, Zoltek), the fiber direction (0°/90°, ± 45°), and the frictional force were measured, which occurred between the fiber and the mold and between the fiber and the fiber. A comparative experiment was conducted through actual preform production by designating it as a variable for element analysis. The analysis was conducted according to the difference between the static friction coefficient and the dynamic friction coefficient in the molding analysis. Within the range of the Coulomb equation, the shear angle changing was compared with the actual preform shape to show similar results.

“…Recent advances in polymer synthesis and composite processing technologies have enabled the use of thermoplastic resin in long CF composites 4–6 . Thermoplastic resins offer several advantages, such as fast forming, impact resistant, and easy to recycle, compared to thermoset resin 7–9 . Polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) is a high‐performance resin, 10,11 and their composites have used in aerospace and civil engineering industries due to their remarkable mechanical properties, high wear resistance, high temperature resistance and corrosion resistance 12–14 …”

The properties of carbon fiber (CF) reinforced thermoplastic resin composites depend on the physical and chemical interaction between the fibers and the resins. However, surface oxidation is not always necessary. In this study, the interaction between CF and Polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) is enhanced by using an emulsion of reactive sulfur to treat the CF surface. The interlaminar shear strength (ILSS) of CF/PPS composites is experimentally investigated and found to be up to 79.7 MPa, an increase of 36.1% compared to the untreated CF. The enhancement mechanism of the modification method established is inferred. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) results showed that sulfur etching on the surface of CF generated new functional groups, which improved the interfacial effect, and tightened the bond between CF and PPS. This indicates that sulfur treatment along with sizing must be a simpler method than surface oxidation to promote the interfacial bonding between CF and PPS.

“…A comprehensive review on Elium ® -based composites is also available in the literature. [45] While comprehensive studies have been conducted on the pseudo-ductile response of multiple thermoplastic composites, such as polypropylene (PP), polycarbonate, and polyurethane, and so forth, the true potential of Elium ® -based carbon/ glass hybrid composites, in terms of pseudo ductility and the effect of hybridization on the microstructure, has not been explored yet.…”

In this study, two different type of glass and carbon fiber hybrid laminates were manufactured using a low-viscosity thermoplastic resin that is, Elium ® .A detailed microstructure visualization study was conducted using X-ray computed tomography (XCT) analysis. The viscoelastic properties were examined through dynamic mechanical analysis. The mechanical performance was investigated through flexural and tensile tests along with a fractographic study using optical and scanning electron microscopy. The XCT analysis revealed a weak interface between the Elium ® resin and the glass fabric, with glass fiber specimens exhibiting a void content of 1.24%, in contrast to the carbon fiber specimens which showed void content of only 0.28%. Therefore, adding glass fabric layers in the hybrid laminates increased the void content, which had a negative impact on the overall mechanical performance. The average flexural strength of the hybrid specimen having G 2 C 4 G 2 stacking sequence was observed to be 254% higher than pure GFRPC specimens. Similarly, the tensile strength and Young's modulus of the same hybrid specimen showed 155% and 380% increases, respectively, compared to the GFRPC specimens. This increase was primarily due to higher stiffness of the carbon fibers and their better fiber matrix interface. Whereas the tensile strain of the hybrid specimen having G 3 C 2 G 3 stacking sequence was 37% higher than that of the CFRPC specimens.The SEM images highlighted fiber fracture and brittle failure modes in the carbon fiber specimens, in contrast to fiber pullout, interfacial failure, poor fibermatrix bonding and ductile failure modes in the glass fiber specimens.
