Multilayer composites are in concern of both world of material science and the industry because of providing enhanced mechanical properties with ultra lightweight. Also, there is a growing demand to use of recyclable, biodegradable materials in polymer composites for the sake of environmental health. In this study, polymer blends were prepared with polylactic acid (PLA) and acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) with 10, 30, and 50 wt.%. To compatibilize these polymers, styrene-ethylene-butylene-styrene terpolymer grafted with maleic anhydride (SEBS-MAH), ethylene-glycidyl methacrylate copolymer (E-GMA), styrene-maleic anhydride (SMA), and styrene-acrylonitrile-glycidyl methacrylate (SAN-GMA) with 5, 10, and 15 wt.%. were added. The polymer blending was carried out using a co-rotating twin screw extruder. The polymer layers of multilayer composites were prepared with neat PLA, 70PLA/30ABS and 10SAN-GMA/(70PLA/30ABS), and reinforced with one and three layers carbon fabric (CF). The multilayer composites were produced with compression molding process. The polymer blends and the multilayer composites were mainly characterized in terms of their physical properties and morphologies. While all binary blends have approximately the same impact strength values, tensile strength of 70PLA/30ABS blend was 40% higher than other binary blends. The addition of 10 wt.% SAN-GMA into PLA/ABS blends resulted in maximum impact strength of 27.0 kJ/m2 among the ternary blends. Composites with three layers CF exhibited higher mechanical properties than the composites with one layer CF. SAN-GMA compatibilizer was efficient in decreasing the interfacial tension between PLA and ABS. However, it did not yield the same performance when used in the polymer layers of the multilayer composites.

MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF REPAIRED CARBON FIBER REINFORCED POLYMER COMPOSITES
Sonat, Emine Evren; Özerinç, Sezer; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2021-12-10)
Carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites are increasingly used in the aerospace industry due to their high specific strength compared to conventional metallic materials. However, a significant shortcoming of these composites is their increased susceptibility to damage. Structural repair is a common method to restore the load-carrying capacity of a damaged part when the damage size exceeds the pre-defined tolerances. Scarf and stepped bonded repair methods are the primary choice for cases that requi...
The use of polyethylene copolymers as compatibilizers in carbon fiber reinforced high density polyethylene composites
ATABEK SAVAŞ, Lemiye; Tayfun, Umit; DOĞAN, Mehmet (2016-08-15)
In the current study, three different commercially available copolymers are used as compatibilizer in carbon fiber (CF) reinforced high density polyethylene (PE) based composites. Polyethylene grafted maleic anhydride (PE-g-MA), a random terpolymer of ethylene, acrylic ester and maleic anhydride (LOT MA) and a random copolymer of ethylene and glycidyl methacrylate (LOT-GMA) are used as compatibilizers. The compatibilizers are used at three concentrations of 1.5, 3 and 6 wt%. The type and amount of compatibi...
Meso-scale finite element modelling of carbon nanotube reinforced polymer composites
Haydar, Altay; Esat, Volkan; Mechanical Engineering (2021-12)
Carbon nanotube (CNT) reinforced polymer composites (CNTRPs) are promising materials which can be utilized in a variety of industries. Several experimental research studies have been conducted to determine the mechanical properties of CNTRPs, however results have not been conclusive. In this study, meso-scale representative volume elements (RVEs) of straight and coiled CNT (CCNT) reinforced epoxy composites were analysed by using commercial finite element analysis software MSC Marc-Mentat. CNTs were randoml...
Mechanical properties of epoxy matrix composite reinforced with multi-walled carbon nanotubes
Yüceer, Kevser.; Çöker, Demirkan; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2019)
Improving usage preference of composite material in the aerospace industry brings the requirement of improving mechanical properties of the material. In this thesis, mechanical improvement of epoxy composite materials is analyzed with contribution of functionalized multi-walled CNT with carboxyl group (-COOH) and non-functionalized MWCNT with epoxy for CNT weight fractions of 0.8, 1.0, 1.2, 1.5 and 2.0 wt%. The nanomaterial is dispersed in epoxy resin by calendering mixing method. Functionalization of CNT p...
Investigating the mechanical properties of single walled carbon nanotube reinforced epoxy composite through finite element modelling
Zuberi, Muhammad Jibran Shahzad; Esat, Volkan (2015-03-15)
Varying experimental results on the mechanical properties of carbon nanotube reinforced polymer composites (CNTRPs) have been reported due to the complexities associated with the characterization of material properties in nano-scale. Insight into the issues associated with CNTRPs may be brought through computational techniques time- and cost-effectively. In this study, finite element models are generated in which single walled carbon nanotube models are embedded into the epoxy resin. For modelling interface...
