Impact Value of CFRP/Ti Joint Reinforced by Nickel Coated Carbon Fiber

Carbon Fiber Reinforced Bismaleimide Composites

Bismaleimide (BMI) resins are developed very rapidly due to the demands of the defense and aerospace industries. They are cross-linked polymers which process like epoxy resins but have an upper use temperature of 230°C, compared to the epoxy upper use temperature of 175°C. Also due to the available intrinsic properties of BMI resins such as higher thermal stability and lower toxicity than those...

Processing of Carbon Fiber Reinforced Composites by Three Dimensional Photolithography

The reinforcement of photoresins with continuous carbon fibers is discussed in this paper. The processing was conducted in an automated desktop photolithography unit (ADPU) developed and built in-house. Continuous fibers were added in situ to the photoresin to obtain composite samples containing over 20 vol% of the fibers. The tensile strength of these composites improved by at least a factor o...

Interfacial shear strength of bioactive-coated carbon fiber reinforced polyetheretherketone after in vivo implantation.

Despite the excellent osseointegration of carbon-fiber-reinforced polyetheretherketone (CFR/PEEK) with a surface hydroxyapatite (HA) coating, the bone-implant interfacial shear strength of HA-coated CFR/PEEK after osseointegration is unclear. We examined the interfacial shear strength of HA-coated CFR/PEEK implants after in vivo implantation in a rabbit femur-implant pull-out test model. HA coa...

Effect of Fiber Surface Treatment on Wear Characteristics of Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polyamide 6 Composites

Ozone modification method and air-oxidation were used for the surface treatment of polyacrylonitrile(PAN)-based carbon fiber. The surface characteristics of carbon fibers were characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The interfacial properties of carbon fiber reinforced polyamide 6 (CF/PA6) composites were investigated by means of the single fiber pull-out tests. As a result...
