Abstract

Thermoplastic composites as emerging materials for aerospace and automotive industries are suitable for mass-production and recycling. Healing is one of their inherent features when being damaged. This study aims to focus on the fusion bonding of a thermoplastic composite reinforced with carbon fibers. The material was fabricated in the Single Lap Joints (SLJs) configuration using a co-cured manufacturing method. First, the joints were subjected to quasi-static tensile tests to failure. The pristine joints with a 20 mm overlap length gave an average maximum load of about 5.5 kN. Then, the damaged joints were healed and subjected to the same test conditions to see their performance. It was observed that the thermoplastic adherends were able to be healed almost fully, giving a joint strength of about 5.2 kN, implying about 5 % of a decrement. Numerical works were also undertaken to see stress distributions in the joint and to predict the joint failure. Further investigations have shown the lap shear performance of such joints could be improved through different designs with no additional weight in the joint, which is feasible using the co-cured manufacturing methods.
用共固化方法提高碳纤维增强热塑性复合材料单搭接接头(SLJ)的愈合性能
热塑性复合材料作为航空航天和汽车工业的新兴材料,适合批量生产和回收利用。当受到伤害时,愈合是它们的固有特征之一。本研究旨在研究碳纤维增强热塑性复合材料的熔合。该材料采用共固化制造方法制成单搭接(slj)结构。首先,对接头进行准静态拉伸破坏试验。重叠长度为20mm的原始接头的平均最大载荷约为5.5 kN。然后,对损伤的关节进行修复,并在相同的测试条件下观察其性能。观察到,热塑性粘结剂几乎能够完全愈合,接头强度约为5.2 kN,意味着约5%的衰减。同时进行了节理应力分布和节理破坏预测的数值研究。进一步的研究表明,通过不同的设计可以改善这种节点的搭接剪切性能,而无需在节点中添加额外的重量,这在共固化制造方法中是可行的。
