Systematically varied interfaces of continuously reinforced glass fibre/polypropylene composites: Comparative evaluation of relevant interfacial aspects

Abstract: Abstract.Interface related mechanical properties of unidirectional continuous glass fibre (GF)/polypropylene (PP) composites made of commingled yarns have been systematically studied according to a three level, three-factor factorial design. The three systematically varied factors comprised different silane coupling agent and film former contents in GF sizings as well as a varying GF diameter. Besides the statistical evaluation of those main effects on the transverse tensile and compression shear strengths of … Show more

“…The average compression transverse elastic modulus was, as expected, the same as that for the tensile case. The computed average compression transverse strength, Y c , resulted in ≈ 68 MPa, this being reasonable according to data available in the literature [38].…”

“…In accordance to ref., [20] we used PP HG455FB and MAH-g-PP (Exxelor PO1020, 2 ma%) as reference system for the preparation of hybrid yarns as well as continuous GFreinforced PP composites. This reference system was modified with crosslinkable rubber (Engage 8100, 7.5 ma%, Table 1) and/or a crosslinking additive (TMPTA, 2.0 ma%, Table 1) in order to enable the chemical modification of polymer matrix as well as chemical couplings between MAH-g-PP in the film former (Aquacer 598; Table 1) and the modified polymer matrix by high-energy electrons.…”
