Towards greener wind power: Nanodiamond-treated flax fiber composites outperform standard glass fiber composites in impact fatigue tests
Abstract
Wind energy is facing two major problems, recyclability of wind turbine blades, primarily made from fiberglass, and rain erosion on the blade’s leading edges. Here, we show that flax fiber reinforced epoxy composites have less impact fatigue damage than glass fiber (GF) composites made with the same resin. The novel treatment of flax with non-toxic nanodiamonds even boosts its outstanding performance. Nanodiamond-treated flax fiber (FFND) composites exhibit a damage incubation period up to 17 times as long as GF composites and have at least 74 % less mass loss. This is connected to lower initial impact pressure, less shock wave reflections and better impact absorption of flax composites. The nanodiamonds act as fiber sizing, strengthening the fibers and their matrix interface. This delays fracturing and results in less erosion, making the biodegradable FFND a promising replacement for GF towards a fabrication of more sustainable and longer lasting wind turbine blades. ; publishedVersion
