Engineering tensile behavior of hybrid carbon fiber/self-reinforced polypropylene composites by bio-inspired fiber discontinuities
Abstract
Carbon fiber layer failure is vital for the tensile behavior of interlayer hybrid carbon fiber (CF)/self-reinforced polypropylene (SRPP) composites. Introducing cuts, termed here as discontinuities, into the carbon layer is a promising way to tailor its failure behavior. Inspired by structural features of biological composites, we designed and produced hybrid composites with hierarchical and polygonal arrangements of discontinuities in the carbon layer. Increasing the number of levels in the hierarchical patterns delayed the onset of carbon layer failure, hence improving the damage resistance of the hybrid composites. A progressive carbon layer failure was achieved with the polygonal patterns by creating a transition from fiber bundle pull-out to fiber bundle fracture. Spreading the polygonal patterns throughout the specimen resulted in a unique diffused delamination distribution that has not been reported in the literature. Pseudo-ductile behavior was achieved by creating dispersed fiber bundle pull-out with the fully dispersed polygonal patterns. The resulting hybrid CF/SRPP composites demonstrated a rare combination of stiffness (10 GPa) and ductility (~16% failure strain) with a pseudo-ductile strain over 14%. This paper delivers and proves the concept of utilizing discontinuities to engineer the tensile behavior of hybrid composites.
