    Notes: Abstract Metal Matrix Composites (MMC's) reinforced with continuous fibers were generally fabricated by a foil-sandwich technique or by liquid metal infiltration. Liquid metal infiltration may be used to cast final shapes in molds containing fiber preforms. It is also used to make composite wire from which may be fabricated panels and shapes by hot-press diffusion bonding or pultrusion. The major drawback of this method is that the molten matrix must wet the fiber for successful infiltration to occur, requiring special fiber surface treatments or matrix additives, and that, molten metals generally dissolve or degrade the fibers, necessitating a barrier coating on the fibers. All these problems can be solved using carbon fibers coated with metallic layers, e.g. nickel. This work analyses an easy method to produce modified carbon fibers by electroplating and the process of its recristallization. The topography of the growth front of the deposit has been studied. At temperatures higher than about 300° C an annealing under vacuum is required, because of the high reactivity of metal coating, nevertheless the heat treatment of metal deposit produces always an embrittled material.

    Notes: Abstract An analytical model is presented for the determination of the fractal dimensions of particles which are widely used as reinforcement in nanocomposites. The model is used to characterize the surface irregularity or roughness. It was found that fractal dimensions of both the contour and surface of particles depend only on the relative particles size ratio between secondary particles and subunits. It is proposed that, in practical applications, the fractal dimension of a certain reinforcement particle can be obtained by a combination of this model and a state-of-the-art instrument that can determine the sizes of primary and secondary particles by image analysis. It is possible to relate the fractal dimension with the adhesion and other physical and chemical properties at the interface between particles and matrix.

    Notes: Abstract It is possible to optimize the performance of the inorganic-organic composites dispersing the inorganic component in the organic matrix on a nanomiter length scale. If dry the inorganic phase cannot be intimately dispersed during the incorporation in the matrix. When the particle surface is organically modified, and the incorporation is made starting from a liquid dispersion (particles in polymer solution), the resulting composites exhibit an excellent homogeneity. Here, monolithic [poly(methyl methacrylate)/monodisperse silica particles] nanocomposites have been prepared and characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), dynamic light scattering (DLS), micro-hardness, and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC).

    Notes: Abstract Optically transparent nanocomposites are of special interest since they have great potential in optical applications. The synthesis of poly(methacrylic methylester)/monodispersed Cu2(OH)2CO3 particles, a new nanocomposite material with a refractive index similar to glass, is here described. The system can be easily deposited on glass plates by spin-coating technology, yielding homogeneous, low-defect thin films of high transparency, that can be used as color filters for liquid crystal displays. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), dynamic light scattering (DLS), scanning electron microscope (SEM), transmission electron microscope (TEM), and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) have been used to characterize the composite material.

    Notes: The effect of filler content and applied electrical field on the electrical resistivity of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) filled with aluminum particles was investigated. The resistivity of such composite suddenly decreases by several orders of magnitude at a critical volume concentration φc. In addition, for filler contents lower than φc, the PMMA/Al composite undergoes a transition from a high to a low resistance material in correspondence of a critical value of the external applied electrical field. This value has been related to thermal breakdown occurring in the regions between conductive particles. Moreover, the permittivity spectrum as a function of frequency is reported for composites of several filler contents, and the Lal and Parshad law was used to correlate the experimental data.

    Notes: The mismatch in thermoelastic properties between fiber and matrix in Kevlar 49 fabric-epoxy composites is shown to result in significant thermal stresses with cool down from processing temperatures. Cooling generates local transverse tensile stresses that can potentially initiate microcracking at ambient conditions. A temperature reduction also places the curved fiber in the fabric composite in axial compression. This compression adds to the bending strain in the fiber, resulting in significant local reduction of its inherently low compressive load-bearing capability. The combination of thermal stresses and external compressive loads that are below ultimate values can cause local compressive failure of the fiber. The kink bands formed as a result of compressive failure of Kevlar fiber are expected to cause debonding between fiber and matrix and, therefore, are also potential sites for crack initiation. Thus, thermal stresses can contribute to the initiation of at least two damage mechanisms that may severely limit the compressive and flexural fatigue strength of Kevlar fabric composites at and below ambient temperature.

    Notes: The effect of water absorption on the stress transferability across E-glass fiber/nylon 6 interface has been studied using the embedded single fiber composite technique. The behavior of silane coated fiber and untreated fiber composites after periods of water immersion were compared. The silane coating provided both higher interfacial shear stress transferability and protection from permanent water damage in the interphase region. It was found that water absorption in the nylon matrix reduced the shear stress transferability through plasticization of the matrix, weakening of the interface, and the development of tensile swelling stresses at the phase boundaries. In untreated materials the shear stress transferability was limited by decoupling of the matrix from the broken fiber ends by either interface slippage or local plane strain fracture in the interphase region near the fiber end. In the silane treated materials the shear stress transferability was limited by constrained yielding of the polysiloxane/nylon interphase at the fiber end, thus indicating plasticization of the matrix was the primary factor. After 20 days of water immersion, there was permanent deterioration of stress transferability in the untreated samples, but very little permanent damage in the treated samples.

    Notes: Mechanical properties of fiber reinforced composites depend on the formation of stable adhesive bonds between the constituents. In order to evaluate quantitatively the adhesion between liquid crystal polymer (LCP) fibers and a thermoplastic matrix of polycarbonate, the single fiber composite test (SFC), utilized for testing glass or carbon fiber composites, has been used. Neither chemical nor physical interaction has been found: the PC and LCP phases are completely incompatible. However, a mechanical friction between PC and LCP was observed during the drawing of the sample when the neck of the matrix started.

    Notes: The cure kinetics of two dicyanate resins were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry under isothermal and nonisothermal conditions. An autocatalytic kinetic model was proposed and a set of general kinetic parameters was calculated from the isothermal experiments. Good agreement between experimental data and the kinetic model has been obtained under different processing conditions, which demonstrated the validity and the usefulness of the analytical procedure and of the kinetic expression employed. Consequently, in its current form, the modeling methodology is capable of describing the degree of cure during a typical processing cycle and has the potential for comparing different resin formulations as well as the manifestations of cure in property development. Specifically, in this work the modeling methodology was tested using two distinct dicyanate resin systems while the development of the cure was also observed through dielectric analysis (DEA).
