Effect of laminated structures on thermo-formability of continuous CF/PEEK composites

摘要: 碳纤维增强聚醚醚酮复合材料(CF/PEEK)在航空航天等领域有着日益广泛的应用。本文研究了叠层结构对CF/PEEK板材的力学性能和热成形性的影响,并讨论了相关机制。在同种工艺参数下设计并制造了6种不同叠层结构的板材,其力学性能和热成形性能分别通过0°和90°下的常温拉伸试验及320℃下的杯突试验来表征。实验结果表明正交叠层结构[0/90/0/0/90/0]的拉伸强度和热成形性能最好,而加入编织层或采用非正交叠层均使热成形性能有不同程度的下降,这是由于编织层为整个叠层结构中的薄弱项,而非正交结构在不同方向的拉伸强度差异较大,容易发生纤维-基体失效。Abstract: Carbon fiber reinforced polyether-ether-ketone composites (CF/PEEK) are increasingly used in aerospace and other fields. In this study, the influence of laminated structures on mechanical properties and thermo-formability of CF/PEEK sheets were investigated, and the associated mechanisms were discussed. Six different laminated structures of CF/PEEK sheets were designed, and the sheets were fabricated under the same process parameters. The mechanical properties and thermo-formability were characterized by tensile tests at 0° and 90° directions and Erichsen tests at 320℃, respectively. The results show that the tensile strength and thermo-formability of orthogonal structure [0/90/0/0/90/0] is the best. However, the thermo-formability of the structure added woven laminates or non-orthogonal structure are decreased. This is because the added woven laminate is observed to be a weak part in the structure, and the non-orthogonal structure has distinct mechanical properties in 0° and 90° directions and is prone to fiber-matrix failure.
