Effect of machining coolant on integrity of CFRP composites

Abstract: It is well known that carbon fibre-reinforced polymer/plastic (CFRP) composites are sensitive to moisture, and so there is a reluctance to use cutting/machining fluids within the composites industry. In this work, the influence of a selection of machining fluids on the integrity of CFRP's and their final mechanical properties was studied. Six sets of CFRP specimens were exposed to air, water and four machining coolants at an elevated temperature of 60°C for 7 days. Swell tests were performed to observe the spe… Show more

“…CFRP are thus often machined in dry conditions, without coolants. 19 Dry machining produces an increase in temperature and generates thermal damage of machined surfaces. 20 The cutting temperature is also a major factor that directly affects tool life.…”
