Research Abstract

ADvanced carbon and aramid fibers have been developed and manufactured for use as reinforcements of polymer composite materials employed for structural parts in aerospace, sporting goods and for many other purposes. The tensile properties of these fibers have been rapidly improved along the fiber direction, however, their compressive properties are generally poorer and more complex. Composite materials made from these fibers also exhibit such tendencies regardless of their increasing use under compressive loading. Considering such a background, compressive behavior of advanced fibers and their composite materials were investigated in this project.
Axial compressive behavior of various carbon, aramid and glass fibers were examined by tensile recoil technique. It is known that this method can easily and directly evaluate compressive strength of a single fiber. Therefore, axial compressive strengths of these fibers were measured by this technique. Effects of surface treatments on fiber com … More pressive strengths were also made clear.
A new evaluation technique for fiber/matrix interphase behavior under compressive loading was proposed within this research project. This technique was easy to conduct compared to conventional micro-testing for interphase. By employing this method, the role of interphase for compressive behavior of composite material was identified. Such experimantal results of fiber compressive strengths and interphase behavior were useful for discussion of compressive behavior of advanced composite materials.
Axial compressive behavior of unidirectional fiber reinforced composite materials were examined by using a great number of specimens. Therefore, not only compressive properties but also their scatters for these materials were evaluated so that reliability of advanced composite materials were able to be investigated. Materials were consisted of various carbon and aramid fibers and matrices including thermoplastic resins, so that effects of these constituent material properties on the reliability of composite materials could be examined. As important results, it was identified that stiff fiber, matrix and interphase were needed to supress fiber microbuckling phenomena and improve the reliability of advanced composite materials. Less
