Scale effect on tribo-mechanical behavior of vegetal fibers in reinforced bio-composite materials

Abstract: The nature of friction of vegetal fiber and polymeric matrix in bio-composite materials is very important for many industrial applications. In order to design natural fiber composites for structural applications, the scientific understanding of tribo-mechanical phenomena inside the heterogeneous structure of natural fibers and also the overall heterogeneous structure of the bio-composite is required. This implies a special focus on the fundamental aspects of vegetal fiber friction at the macro-, meso-, and mic… Show more

“…This founding has been also confirmed by an orthogonal cutting investigation on UD flax fibers reinforced PP matrix [33] which proves that the multiscale behavior of NFRP composites is independent of the process type. Indeed, the intimate relationship between the relevant scales and the fibrous structure size has been previously confirmed by nanoindentation and scratch test measurements where the authors show the scale effect on the tribo-mechanical performances of flax fibers [46,47].…”

“…The strong demand for bio-composite materials requires deep investigations into their manufacturing processes to optimize their production [13], especially during machining operation where the cutting behavior of natural fibers presents some issues due to their complex cellulosic structure [14] that makes them highly sensitive to the variation of process parameters. Because of this cellulosic structure, mechanical properties of NFRP composites have a multiscale dependence on the analysis contact scale [15,16]. A particular problem in the milling of NFRP is that of holding good surface finish, which is significantly dependent on the fiber type [17] and the tool geometry such as the cutting edge sharpness [18] and the helix angle of the cutting flutes [19].…”
