This paper presents the post-forming limits of polyamide 6 carbon (CF/PA6) thermoplastic tubes to facilitate design and process optimisation bent tubular CF/PA6 part manufacturing. Straight can be post-formed using rotary draw bending at elevated temperature achieve desired curvatures. Forming are predicted based on their winding angles, tube geometry, radius, presented as relation between angl...

Abstract Interfacial degradation is the main reason for deterioration of mechanical properties composites in hydrothermal environments. In this study, effect interphase on water diffusion two types unidirectional continuous carbon fiber-reinforced polyamide 6 (CF/PA6) investigated through experimental measurements, theoretical analysis, and numerical simulation. The moisture coefficient composi...

The present study investigates the failure mechanisms of industrial fiber materials, using a custom designed fiber cutting performance test bench. The fracture morphologies of single PA6 fibers are examined by scanning electron microscopy. The analysis reveals that fiber cutting can be distinguished according to four distinct stages of fiber failure represented by shearing, cutting, brittle fra...

An interleukin 3-dependent multipotential stem cell clone, LyD9, has been shown to generate mature B lymphocytes, macrophages, and neutrophils by coculture with primary bone marrow stromal cells. We report here that coculture with the cloned stromal cell lines PA6 and ST2 can support differentiation of LyD9 cells predominantly into granulocyte/macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF)- and ...

Nanocomposites of layered silica nanoparticles (LSN) obtained by the sol–gel method, and commercial montmorillonite clay Cloisite®20A with polypropylene (PP) and Cloisite®30B with polyamide-6 (PA6) were prepared by melt blending in order to study their effects on barrier, mechanical properties, and thermal stability. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) showed that all of the nanocomposites p...

Polyamide 6 / nitrile butadiene rubber / nanoclay (PA6/NBR/clay) nanocomposite has gathered wide acceptance in industry. Laser welding, as a fabrication method, is applied to welding of polymer nanocomposites. In this study, the input parameters (clay (Closite 30B) content, laser power, scan velocity and stand-off-distance) are varied to achieve the best responses (tensile strength of welds). R...

The aim of this work is synthesis a novel nanocomposite containing Polylactide (PLA) and polyamide 6 (PA6) reinforced with graphene oxide (GO) poly ethylene-butyl acrylate-glycidyl methacrylate) (PTW) compatibilizer during solvent-based method. For purpose, GO was added to the 0.1, 0.3, 0.5, 0.7 1 phr. Morphology, rheology mechanical properties nanocomposites were studied scanning electron micr...
