Effect of loading rate, viscosity, and binder activation on the bending response of an infiltrated UD-NCF
Assessing the bending response of infiltrated reinforcement fabrics is crucial in wet compression molding (WCM) as it affects macroscopic wrinkling. Binder-stabilized fabrics may be used in WCM to improve handleability and reduce defects, necessitating their characterization. This study examines the bending behavior of an infiltrated binder-stabilized carbon fiber unidirectional non-crimp fabric (UD-NCF), focusing on the effects of viscosity, loading rate, and binder pre-activation. Infiltration reduces bending stiffness compared to dry fabric owing to lubrication and lower tow-stitch friction, while higher loading rates increase bending stiffness for all considered conditions. Moreover, binder pre-activation increases fabric stiffness by enhancing tow-stitch cohesion and friction. As the first investigation on infiltrated binder-stabilized UD-NCF bending, this work advances understanding of the complex bending response.
期刊介绍:
Composites Part A: Applied Science and Manufacturing is a comprehensive journal that publishes original research papers, review articles, case studies, short communications, and letters covering various aspects of composite materials science and technology. This includes fibrous and particulate reinforcements in polymeric, metallic, and ceramic matrices, as well as 'natural' composites like wood and biological materials. The journal addresses topics such as properties, design, and manufacture of reinforcing fibers and particles, novel architectures and concepts, multifunctional composites, advancements in fabrication and processing, manufacturing science, process modeling, experimental mechanics, microstructural characterization, interfaces, prediction and measurement of mechanical, physical, and chemical behavior, and performance in service. Additionally, articles on economic and commercial aspects, design, and case studies are welcomed. All submissions undergo rigorous peer review to ensure they contribute significantly and innovatively, maintaining high standards for content and presentation. The editorial team aims to expedite the review process for prompt publication.
