Isothermal and anisothermal decomposition of carbon fibres polyphenylene sulfide composites for fire behavior analysis

The Decomposition Behavior of Thermoset Carbon Fiber Epoxy Composites in the Fire Environment

Carbon fiber composite materials are increasingly being used in the design and fabrication of transportation vehicles. In particular, the aviation industry is increasing transitioning from metals to this class of composites due to the high strength and low weight of the materials. Most aviation structural composites are thermoset, meaning they require thermal processing to harden the epoxy. In ...

Hierarchical Composites with Carbon Nanotube Grafted Fibres

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are excellent candidates for a new generation of high-strength, high-stiffness materials due to their low density, high aspect ratio and intrinsically superior mechanical properties. The present study investigates the feasibility of reinforcing conventional fibre/matrix composites by grafting CNTs onto the fibre surface. The approach is to exploit the CNT performance to ...

Tribological studies of polyphenylene sulfide composites filled with micro/nano particles and reinforced with short fibers or carbon nano-tubes/carbon nano-fibers

Study of fire retardant behavior of carbon nanotube membranes and carbon nanofiber paper in carbon fiber reinforced epoxy composites

Single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) and multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) membranes (buckypaper) and carbon nanofiber (CNF) paper were incorporated onto the surface of epoxy carbon fiber composites, as proposed fire shields. Their flammability behaviors were investigated by a cone calorimeter. SWCNT buckypaper and CNF paper did not show notable improvement on fire retardancy. However, MWCN...
