Diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform (DRIFT) spectroscopy was used to assess the effects of heat damage on carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites in this thesis study. Moisture saturated carbon-epoxy laminates were heat damaged above their upper service temperature. Loss of matrix dominated mechanical properties due to heat exposure was investigated in laboratory environmental testing conditions using mechanical tests, ultrasonic C-scanning and DRIFT spectroscopy. DRIFT spectroscopy was observed to be a more effective technique with respect to ultrasonic inspection in evaluating the extent of heat damage and a good iiicorrelation was found between mechanical test results and DRIFT spectra. The increase in carbonyl band integral, the decrease in phenyl ratio and hydroxyl and hydrocarbon band integrals evident from the DRIFT spectra were accompanied by a decrease in the mechanical strength of the composite material.

Heat-damage assessment of carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer composites by diffuse reflectance infrared spectroscopy
Dara, IH; Ankara, A; Akovali, G; Suzer, S (2005-05-15)
Diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform (DRIFT) spectroscopy was used to assess the effects of heat damage on carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer composites. Moisture-saturated graphite-epoxy laminates with a quasi-isotropic lay-up were heat-damaged above their upper service temperatures. The loss of matrix-dominated mechanical properties due to heat exposure was investigated in the laboratory under environmental testing conditions with mechanical tests, ultrasonic C-scanning, and DRIFT spectroscopy. The...
Thermal degradation of polythiophene-natural rubber and polythiophene-synthetic rubber conducting polymer composites
Hacaloğlu, Jale; Akbulut, Ural; Toppare, Levent Kamil (1997-01-01)
Thermal degradation of conducting polymer composites of polythiophene and rubbers was studied by direct and indirect pyrolysis mass spectrometry techniques. The samples were prepared by electrooxidation of polythiophene using natural rubber or synthetic rubber as the insulating matrix. Presence of decomposition products which were not observed during pyrolysis of pure polythiophene and rubbers, and disappearance of rubber-based pyrolysis mass peaks, together with changes in thermal stability and behaviour, ...
Electrical transport, optical and thermal properties of polyaniline-pumice composites
YILMAZ, KORAY; Akgoz, A.; Cabuk, M.; Karaagac, H.; KARABULUT, ORHAN; YAVUZ, Mustafa (2011-11-01)
In this study, electrical conductivity, photoconductivity, absorbance and thermal properties of polyaniline (PANI) and polyaniline-pumice composites were investigated. Temperature dependent conductivity and photoconductivity measurements were carried out in the temperature range of 80-400K. The measurements revealed that the dominant conduction mechanisms in polyaniline and 15% pumice doped composite were hopping conduction. The low activation energies calculated for 36% pumice doped composite indicated tha...
Thermal Characterization of Sepiolite Samples
Kök, Mustafa Verşan (2013-01-15)
In this research, two sepiolite samples of different origins were studied by X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimeter, and thermogravimetry. It was observed that both sepiolite samples are nearly pure and well crystallized sepiolite. Thermal studies (thermogravimetry) showed that four distinct weight loss regions are observed in both sepiolite samples studied. It was noticed that these structural changes play an important role to the properties and uses o...
Processing and characterization of carbon fiber reinforced silicon carbide (c/c-sic) matrix composites
Tülbez, Simge; Dericioğlu, Arcan Fehmi; Esen, Ziya; Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering (2015)
The current study was undertaken to investigate the production and characterization of Carbon Fiber Reinforced Silicon Carbide (C/C-SiC) Matrix Composites. Liquid silicon infiltration (LSI) method was utilized to produce the C/C-SiC composites. Processing of these composites via LSI process composed of three main stages. CFRP production, pyrolysis and liquid silicon infiltration. Each production stage has an important effect on the efficiency of the LSI process, therefore present study investigates the effe...
