Neat and nano-modified epoxy matrices were compared, and selected specimens were tested in reverse orientation to investigate face placement during bending. Tensile and three-point bending tests were complemented by dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) to track storage modulus and damping. Nano-modification increased tensile strength from 750 to 928 MPa for the CFRP reference and from 384 to 599 MPa for the interface-rich laminate, while modulus gains remained moderate. In bending, flexural strength increased by about 27 to 34% in the CFRP-rich and two-aluminum-ply laminates and by about 47 to 51% in the alternating architecture. Reverse loading further stabilized the bending response through favorable face placement. DMA showed higher storage modulus in the glassy region and an upward shift in T<sub>g</sub> of approximately 5 to 7 ℃. Across all laminates, flexural modulus tracked DMA storage modulus, indicating that thermoviscoelastic stiffness captures architecture and interface-driven stiffness changes consistently.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":557,"journal":{"name":"Fibers and Polymers","volume":"27 5","pages":"2463 - 2484"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2026-03-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s12221-026-01371-2.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147733054","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The lightfastness ratings of vat-dyed MAF (rating of 3–4) surpass those of disperse-dyed counterparts (rating of 2), despite a greater breaking strength loss (23–25 vs. 11%).

The present study was conducted as an extension of our previous investigations, in which the side-shape configuration of the air guide was selected for low-negative-pressure compact spinning. On this basis, the key geometric parameters of the chosen configuration were further optimized, including side opening width, airflow channel height, and total width. Computational fluid dynamics was applied to analyze the transverse velocity component above the lattice apron. An effective convergence area was defined to quantify airflow guidance performance, and the effects of the above parameters were systematically evaluated. Based on the simulation results, air guides were fabricated by 3D printing and were tested on a four-roller compact spinning system. Single-factor experiments and a two-level full factorial design were carried out for validation and optimization.
