Abstract

Mixed mode interlaminar fracture behaviors of carbon fabric/epoxy composites were investigated through MMF (Mixed Mode Flexural) test by varying mixed mode ratio ranging from 20% to 90%. Mixed mode interlaminar fracture criteria based on NL point and 5% offset point were also suggested in order to predict mixed mode interlaminar fracture behaviors. Fracture surfaces and crack propagating behaviors were examined through a travelling scope and a scanning electron microscope. According to the results, mixed mode interlaminar fracture behaviors can be predicted by mixed mode interlaminar fracture criterion with m=1.5 and n=0.5 on the basis of NL point or mixed mode interlaminar fracture criterion with m=2 and n=3 on the basis of 5% offset point. Fracture surfaces and crack propagating behaviors are sensitive to mixed mode ratios. MMF test can be successfully applicable in evaluating mixed mode interlaminar fracture toughness of carbon fabric/epoxy composites.

MMF 시험을 적용하여 혼합모우드 비율을 20%～90%의 범위 내에서 변화시키면서 탄소섬유직물/에폭시 복합재의 혼합모우드 층간파괴 거동을 조사하였다. 혼합모우드 층간파괴 거동을 예측하기 위해 NL점과 5% offset점에 근거한 혼합모우드 층간파괴 결정식을 제시하였다. 파단면 양상과 균열진전 거동은 이동식 현미경과 전자현미경을 통해 조사하였다. 연구결과에 따르면 혼합모우드 층간파괴 거동은 NL점에 근거한 경우 매개변수 m=1.5와 n=0.5, 5% offset점에 근거한 경우 매개변수 m=2와 n=3인 혼합모우드 층간파괴 결정식에 의해 잘 예측되어진다. 파단면 양상과 균열진전 거동은 혼합모우드 비율에 매우 민감하게 변하며 MMF 시험은 혼합모우드 층간파괴인성의 평가에 성공적으로 적용됨을 알 수 있었다.
