Pulsed thermography on semitransparent materials - what has to be considered?
- Pulsed thermography is a well-known non-destructive testing technique and has proven to be a valuable tool for examination of material defects, to determine thermal material parameters, and the thickness of test specimens through calibration or mathematical models. However, the application to semitransparent materials is quite new and demanding, especially for semitransparent materials like epoxy, polyamide 12, or glass fiber reinforced polymers with epoxy or polyamide matrix. In order to describe the temporal temperature evolution in such materials, which are recorded with an infrared camera during pulse thermography experiments, much more influences have to be considered, compared to opaque materials: - The wavelength of the excitation source and the spectral range of the infrared camera - The angles between the specimen, the excitation source and the infrared camera - The area behind the specimen - The roughness of the material surface - The scattering mechanism within thePulsed thermography is a well-known non-destructive testing technique and has proven to be a valuable tool for examination of material defects, to determine thermal material parameters, and the thickness of test specimens through calibration or mathematical models.

These models describe the temperature development during the pulse thermography experiment in reflection and transmission configuration. By fitting the results of the mathematical models to experimental data it is possible to determine the thickness or the optical and thermal properties of the specimen.…
