A modest improvement compared to the unreinforced matrix strength of 4% and much greater improvement of 123%, substantially greater than reported elsewhere in the literature, were obtained using PMPPIC and MAPP respectively. Young’s modulus improvements compared to the unreinforced matrix of 77 and 177% were obtained using PMPPIC and MAPP respectively. The MAPP coupling agents with the longest chain lengths and lower functionality gave the greatest benefit, supporting chain entanglement as the major mechanism for enhanced bonding with PP. Relatively high moulding temperatures and low injection pressures, bringing about enhancement of fiber orientation in the test direction, also appear to have contributed to such large improvements in composite properties in the current work. Combination of PMPPIC and MAPP coupling agents produced mixed results: benefits were obtained by combining PMPPIC and MAPP with the longest chain lengths which can be explained by PMPPIC bonding with hydroxyl groups not accessible to further coupling with MAPP once saturation is achieved.","PeriodicalId":16971,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Reinforced Plastics & Composites","volume":"31 1","pages":"2011 - 2024"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83704041","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using experimental data for a symmetrical, generally orthotropic graphite-epoxy laminate, the damage zone sizes predicted by the Average Stress Criterion and Point Stress Criterion, as well as the D-Criterion, were compared. Additionally, limited data for the Quadratic Surfaces and Sequential Fiber Failure Criteria were evaluated. Experimental measurements of crack-tip damage zone size were used to establish a physical reference point by which all of the theories were compared. The preliminary results of this study indicate that the characteristic lengths defined by the Quadratic Surfaces and Sequential Fiber Failure Criteria are not representative of the measured damage zone size and need further investigation.","PeriodicalId":16971,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Reinforced Plastics & Composites","volume":"11 1","pages":"2081 - 2100"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88933291","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A finite element computer program is developed for stress analysis. The laminated plates of constant thickness are manufactured by stacking four layers bonded symmetrically or antisymmetrically. The residual stress components and yield points are calculated for each layer and compared with different reinforced layers. The location and the expansion of the plastic zones are obtained according to loading gradually increased from yield point as 0.0001 MPa at each load step.

Micro-injection molding is a branch of the micro-electro mechanical system. The size of the product is in nanometers. It is important to produce the product for micro-injection molding technology today. The research of micro-injection molding is still in the early stages. In this study, numerical simulations of three-dimensional micro-injection moldings were performed. The governing differential equations were described by using control volume finite element method. The analysis with different polymers (such as PP, PC, PS, POM) and process parameters (injection time, mold temperature, injection temperature, injection pressure) are used to simulate the microgear for example. In order to obtain optimum results, the simulation introduces the Taguchi method and grey relational analysis to discuss the influence of each parameter in microinjection molding. The results show that the PS material is the most suitable material used in this study. The results for Mold Flow analysis and grey relational analysis are the same on this study.","PeriodicalId":16971,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Reinforced Plastics & Composites","volume":"51 1","pages":"1799 - 1814"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87847961","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The expansion of the plastic region and the residual stress component of σx and τxy are determined for 0, 30, 45, 60, and 90 orientation angles. The yielding begins at the upper and lower surfaces of the beam at the same distances from the ends.
