Viscoelastic properties of cellular polypropylene ferroelectrets (PP FEs) were studied at low
frequencies (0.3–33 Hz) by dynamic mechanical analysis and at high frequencies (250 kHz) by laser Doppler vibrometry. Relaxation behavior of the in-plane Young’s modulus (Y´
11~1500 MPa at room temperature) was observed and attributed to the viscoelastic response of polypropylene matrix.
The out-of-plane Young’s modulus is very small (Y´33≈0.1 MPa) at low frequencies, frequency- and stress-dependent, evidencing nonlinear viscoelastic response of PP FEs. The highfrequency mechanical response of PP FEs is shown to be linear viscoelastic with Y´33≈0.8 MPa. It is described by thickness vibration mode and modeled as a damped harmonic oscillator with one degree of freedom. Frequency dependence of Y*33 in the large dynamic strain regime is described by the broad Cole-Cole relaxation with a mean frequency in kHz range attributed to the Dynamics of the air flow between partially closed air-filled voids in PP FEs. Switching-off the relaxation contribution causes dynamic crossover from the nonlinear viscoelastic regime at low frequencies to the linear viscoelastic regime at high frequencies. In the small strain regime, contribution of the air flow seems to be insignificant and the power-law response, attributed to the mechanics of polypropylene cell walls and closed air voids, dominates in a broad frequency range. Mechanical Relaxation caused by the air flow mechanism takes place in the sound and ultrasound frequency range (10 Hz–1MHz) and, therefore, should be taken into account in ultrasonic applications of the PP FEs deal with strong exciting or receiving signals.
Epoxy composites used for high-end structural applications are typically cured under the influence of temperature and pressure causing a number of complex chemical and physical transformations. On heating a mould, temperature gradients will occur through the component which will depend largely on the thermophysical properties of the specific composite. The crosslinking reaction is exothermic leading to additional heat release, thus complicating heat transportation models. If such effects are not accounted for, it can lead to variations in resin flow, poor fibre wetting causing voiding and inhomogeneous cure, leading to shrinkage and unfavourable variations in moulded part geometry. Limited information is available for thermal models used in the manufacture of reinforced thermosets. Autoclave [1, 2] and laser or infra-red curing processes [3, 4] typically use constant values determined on fully cured parts. In this work, the variation in thermal conductivity (K) (W/(m K)), thermal diffusivity (a) (m(2)/s) and specific heat capacity at constant pressure (c(p)) (J/(g K) is determined for a carbon fibre prepreg during cure. It is the intention to improve understanding of how these parameters are related to chemical or physical transformations occurring during cure, and where estimates or shortcuts may be used for heat transfer models
Epoxy carbon-fibre prepreg, Hexcel Type 6376 HTS, was investigated using Dynamic Mechanical Analysis (DMA). The DMA characteristic parameters are storage modulus E', loss modulus E' and loss factor tanδ. These parameters are ideally suited to observe the vitrification, referred to as glass transition, resulting from the cross-linking reaction. Detection of the cure state may also be achieved by determining the momentary glass transition temperature of partially cured samples. The consequent use of a multi-frequency measuring regime was used to derive the apparent activation energy for the glass transition process. Different temperature programs were also applied to monitor the curing process directly, as well as to investigate the different states of incomplete cure reached in preceding curing steps. The intention was to provide better understanding of the consequences of an interrupted autoclave curing process and to use DMA to detect the cure state achieved. With DMA, the continuation of an incomplete curing process also can be monitored. DMA measurements up to 300 °C showed, furthermore, that the final glass transition temperature was reduced by thermal degradation at high temperatures.
The time-dependent sorption of biodiesel in a typical polyethylene for container applications is investigated in comparison to conventional diesel fuel at three different temperatures. In this context, the desorption behavior is also addressed. Subsequently, the effects of both penetrants on mechanical properties are characterized in terms of impact strength and dynamic-mechanical analysis. The discussion of property changes is firstly based on the sorption kinetics of biodiesel and diesel, which is determined by immersion experiments allowing for the calculation of respective diffusion coefficients. Changes in impact strength as determined by the Charpy method are further characterised in more detail by analyzing the fracture surfaces, and correlated with results of dynamic-mechanical analysis.
Cure monitoring of epoxy films by heatable in situ FTIR analysis: Correlation to composite parts
(2014)
The curing mechanism of an epoxy film containing dicyandiamide (DICY) and an epoxy formulation based on diglycidyl ether of Bisphenol A (DGEBA) polymer was studied as a function of various temperature programs. The investigation was performed in situ, using a thin film of the epoxy mixture on a silicon wafer substrate in a heatable transmission tool of a FTIR spectrometer. Based on these model-curing experiments, a major curing mechanism was proposed, taking into account the appearance, the decrease, and the development of characteristic bands at various temperatures. The conclusions of the model curing were correlated to FTIR measurements on a real, 50-mm-thick glass fiber reinforced component composite part from a technical process. It could be shown that characteristic bands that develop at curing temperatures above 150°C appear especially in the center of the thick sample. From the chemical or molecular point of view, this demonstrates the established technician's understanding that temperature control inside a large-scale fiber composite of, for example, aircraft, wind-turbine, automotive applications component is of major importance.
In a previous paper we investigated the influence of sorbed biodiesel or diesel on mechanical properties of a typical polyethylene grade for tank applications. Besides the basic sorption and desorption behavior of these two fuels, the study addressed the concentration-dependent mechanical properties as revealed by a non-instrumented Charpy impact test and dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA). In the present paper we extend this investigation focusing on the temperature-dependent impact fracture behavior. Therefore, an instrumented Charpy impact test was employed, allowing a more detailed analysis of the fracture behavior. Furthermore, from the load-time-diagrams obtained from the instrumented impact test, corresponding fracture times can be calculated, allowing a clear correlation of the fuel sorption induced changes in fracture toughness with the enhanced ß-relaxation observed by DMA. As in the previous study, the fracture surfaces of the impact tested specimens were analyzed in order to confirm the brittle or ductile character of the fracture indicated by impact strength and the corresponding load-deflection diagrams.
Rubbers are widely used as main sealing materials for Containers for low and intermediate level radioactive waste and as additional component to metal seals in spent fuel and high active waste containers. The save enclosure of the radioactive container inventory has to be guaranteed according to legislation and appropriate guidelines for long term storage periods as well as down to temperatures of -40 °C for transportation. Therefore the understanding of failure mechanisms that lead to leakage at low temperatures is necessary to ensure a proper material choice which is certainly also influenced by additional factors as e.g. the aging behavior.
The investigation of low temperature properties of elastomeric sealing materials by means of thermo-analytical methods is a sound way to get information about the glass transition process.
The breakdown temperature of the sealing function of O-ring seals was measured in a component test setup depending on material and degree of compression.
An in depth explanation of the observed component tests behaviour is currently in preparation. It requires the results of thermo-analytical methods and measurements as the compression set (not shown here). With that, a model was developed to describe the correlation between physical material parameters and observed component behaviour.
Carbon fibre prepregs have found widespread application in lightweight constructions. They are based on a carbon fibre fabric impregnated with reactive epoxy resin. Measurements were carried out using commercially available prepreg material. For Dynamic Mechanical Analysis (DMA), a single cantilever measuring device was applied. The DMA results were refined by additional DSC measurements. The measurements were carried out with dynamic heating in the temperature range -90 to 280 °C. The heating rates were 1 and 2 K/min, respectively. A glass transition of the uncured material (Tg0) near 1 °C, and crosslinking-induced vitrification and devitrification at the maximal glass transition temperature of the cured material (Tgmax) in the temperature range 220 to 230 °C were found. The activation energies for the glass transitions were determined using an Arrhenius plot. By detailed consideration of the influence of the frequency on the DMA data, indications for gelation were deduced.
Carbon-fibre prepregs have found widespread use in lightweight applications. They are based on a carbon-fibre fabric impregnated with reactive epoxy resin. Prepreg materials are generally pre-cured so that they have a higher molecular weight than typical resins in order to reduce resin flow, which facilitates storage and later processing properties.
The measurements were carried out using commercially available materials and follow the published DMA investigations of the same material. TMDSC was used to find the correlation between curing conditions, the degree of cure and glass transition temperature. TMDSC has the advantage over standard DSC that it enables better determination of the glass transition temperature, which is often accompanied by an exothermic curing reaction, and thus overshadowed. The influence of the amplitude of temperature modulation was tested in preliminary experiments. For non-cured material a glass transition temperature of approximately 0 °C was determined; whereas for the totally cured material it was approximately 230 °C. The changes in degree of cure, temperature of actual glass transition and post-reaction are given as a function of curing time at 180 °C. The correlation between actual glass transition temperature and degree of cure is derived.
