Development of Self Healing Resin Matrices for Composites
نویسندگان
چکیده
An ideal self-healing matrix composite which is capable of being monitored for damage events in the matrix so that they can be healed in a thermal cycle to restore the material’s performance without negatively affecting the properties is discussed. A novel technique employing a solid-state matrix repair system for a thermosetting resin that has been shown to be capable of healing of its pre-fracture strength. This paper will describe the concept of a solid-state healable system and its efficiency. In an attempt to optimise the system for processing into composites, the effects of linear polymer with different molecular weight, physical ageing and phase separation have been studied.

Self-healing of damage in fibre-reinforced polymer-matrix composites.
Self-healing resin systems have been discussed for over a decade and four different technologies had been proposed. However, little work on their application as composite matrices has been published although this was one of the stated aims of the earliest work in the field. This paper reports on the optimization of a solid-state self-healing resin system and its subsequent use as a matrix for h...

Epoxy and dicyclopentadien (DCPD) are two common healing agents, which are introduced into epoxy matrix through encapsulation in order to prepare self-healing composites. In a comparative study, the compatibility of healing agents and epoxy matrix is investigated through experimental tests and DFT calculations. The interaction energy is considered to be the determinative parameter in DFT calcul...
متن کاملSelf-healing structural composite materials
A self-healing fiber-reinforced structural polymer matrix composite material is demonstrated. In the composite, a microencapsulated healing agent and a solid chemical catalyst are dispersed within the polymer matrix phase. Healing is triggered by crack propagation through the microcapsules, which then release the healing agent into the crack plane. Subsequent exposure of the healing agent to th...

Amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP), a postulated precursor in the formation of biological hydroxyapatite, has been evaluated as a filler phase in bioactive polymeric composites that utilize dental monomers to form the matrix phase on polymerization. In addition to excellent biocompatibility, these composites provided sustained release of calcium and phosphate ions into simulated saliva milieus. ...
