유리섬유가 강화된 열가소성 복합재료 판재의 성형성에 대한 이해를 돕기 위해 이론적 고찰과 실험적 고찰이 행해졌다. 성형시험에서 사용된 형상은 임의의 방향으로 위치한 유리섬유를 중량비로 30% 함유한 폴리프로필렌 재료가 사용되었고, 시험된 형상은 판재의 굽힘성이나 인장성을 측정하는데 널리 사용되는 스위프트컵(Swift flat-bottomed cup)모양이다. 성형시험과 재료시험은 플리프로필렌 Matrix의 유리성 천이온도(Glass transition temperature)와 용융온도 사이에서 행해졌다. 본 연구의 이론과 고찰을 위해서 재료의 평면 방향으로는 동질성을 그리고 그 직각 방향으로는 이질성을 가진 연속체 물질로 가정하여 유도하였다. 이러한 이론적 결과는 실험 결과와 비교되어졌고,이를 통해 시험된 재료의 최적의 성형조건을 제시하였다.

유리섬유 강화 열가소성 복합재료는 고상성형법에 의해 저렴한 가격으로 큰 부피의 제품의 제조에 널리 사용될 수 있어 아주 좋은 전망을 가지고 있다. 그러나 이러한 재료의 성형성이나 재료거동의 특성은 아직 잘 파악되지 않았다. 본 연구의 주안점은 이러한 재료의 단순 굽힘에서의 굽힘성형성을 연구하는데 두었다. 실험에 사용된 재료는 임의의 방향으로 위치한 유리섬유를 중량비로 20 %, 35 %, 40 % 함유한 폴리프로필렌이다 굽힘시험은 75 $^{\circ}C$에서 150 $^{\circ}C$ 사이의 온도에서 25 $^{\circ}C$ 씩 증가하면서 행했고, 편치속도는 2.54 mm/sec와 0.0254 mm/sec에서 행했다. 단순 굽힘시험에서 측정된 굽힘성형성은 해석적 모델로 예측한 결과와 비교하였다. 실험결과와 예측결과가 비교적 잘 일치함을 보였으며, 굽힘성 map으로써 성형 온도와 펀치반경의 좌굴에 대한 효과를 가시화 함은 물론 좋은 성형조건을 선정할 수 있는 좋은 도구로써 나타내었다.

In various industry, the composite is tried to be applied to products and thermoplastic based composite is in the spotlight because this composite can be recycled. The use of continuous fiber thermoplastic (CFT) method increased gradually than long fiber thermoplastic (LFT). In this study, tensile, flexural, and impact test of different array types of glass fiber (GF)/thermoplastic composites were performed to compare with GF array. Impregnation property between GF mat and thermoplastic was determined using computed tomography (CT). At CFT method, thermoplastic film is not wet into GF roving and many voids are appeared into composite. This phenomenon affects to decrease mechanical properties. Plain pattern GF mat was the best mechanical and impregnation properties that distance between two roving was set closely to $100{\mu}m$.

In mobility industries, the use of thermoplastic composites increased dynamically. In this study, the mechanical and impregnation properties of continuous glass fiber (GF)/polypropylene (PP) composite were evaluated with different GF contents. The GF/PP commingled fiber was manufactured with different GF contents and continuous GF/PP composite was manufactured using continuous compression molding process. Tensile, flexural, and impact test of specimens were evaluated with different GF contents. The fracture behavior of specimens was proved using field emission-scanning electron microscope images of fracture area and impregnation property was evaluated using dynamic mechanical analyzer and interlaminar shear strength. Finally, the GF/PP composite was the optimized mechanical and impregnation properties using 50 wt.% GF/PP commingled fiber.

In this study, the effect of mechanical and chemical properties of glass fiber reinforced thermoplastic (GFRTPs) according to the number of recycling was confirmed. The composite materials were manufactured through a hot press compression molding process using an E-glass chopped strand mat and a polypropylene film. Four specimens were named according to the number of recycled test repeat: First manufacture, 1st Recycle, 2nd Recycle, and 3rd Recycle. To investigate the mechanical properties of the prepared specimen, tensile test, flexural test, drop-weight impact test, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and field emission electron gun-scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM) was performed. As a result, as the number of recycling steps repeat, the degree of crystallization, tensile strength, elastic modulus, and flexural strength were increased, but the impact properties were greatly reduced.

Fiber-reinforced thermoplastic composites are applied to transport industries to lightweight of body, and applications will be expanded gradually. In this study, the impregnation and mechanical properties of continuous glass fiber (GF) reinforced polycarbonate (PC) composites were evaluated with different molecular weights of PC. The continuous GF reinforced PC composite were prepared by using GF fabric and PC film via continuous compression molding method. The melting flow index and tensile strength of PC matrix were evaluated with different molecular weights. Mechanical properties (tensile, flexural, and compressive) and pore rate of GF/PC composite were evaluated with different molecular weights of PC. The fracture behavior was analyzed to fracture surface of GF/PC composite using FE-SEM images. As these results, it was condition of representing the best mechanical property that the GF/PC composite was prepared by using PC of 20,000 g/mol as matrix.

This research is focused on the investigation of impact strength and the microscopic observation of material behavior of glass fiber reinforced polypropylene in solid phase forming. The fiber weight per-centage of the composite materials was 20%, 30% and 40%. The solid-phase formed specimens were pre-strained to 10%,20%. and 30% strain levels. The forming temperatures of specimens were $100^{\circ}C$, $125^{\circ}C$ and $150^{\circ}C$. Izod impact test was performed with unnotched specimens. With increasing the glass fiber content ; the impact strength was increased.

The object of this study was to investigate the feasibility of solid-phase forming of the composites and to characterize the material behavior in the biaxial stretch forming. The materials tested contained 20%, 30%, and 40% glass fibers by weight in a polypropylene matrix. Biaxial stretch forming tests were performed at three forming speeds of 10mm/sec, 1mm/sec, and 0.1mm/sec and at four forming temperatures of $75^{\circ}C, 100^{\circ}C, 125^{\circ}C, and 150^{\circ}C$ to investigate effects of forming speed and forming temperature. The microscopic observation of a formed part was conducted at various strain levels to characterize the material behavior. The strain distribution on a formed part was measured and displayed on the farmed geometry with a contour display The material behavior of the composite in the biaxial stretch forming was strongly influenced by the forming conditions.
