Multi-layer composite

For analytical purposes, the fiber composites are conveniently modeled using axisymmetric three-phase (i.e. fiber-interlayer-matrix), four-phase (i.e. fiber-interlayer-matrix-composite medium) cylindrical composites, or in rare cases multi-layer composites (Zhang, 1993). These models are schematically presented in Fig. 7.9. The three-phase uniform interphase model is typified by the work of Nairn (1985) and Beneveniste et al. (1989), while Mitaka and Taya (1985a, b, 1986) were the pioneers in developing four-phase models with interlayer/interphase of varying stiffness and CTE values to characterize the stress fields due to thermo-mechanical loading. The four phase composite models contain another cylinder at the outermost surface as an equivalent composite (Christensen, 1979 Theocaris and Demakos, 1992 Lhotellier and Brinson, 1988).

It should be noted that the anodization constant ka for multi-layer compositions differs from that for a single tantalum film. This is because the anodization voltage for the Ta film on a dielectric substrate is 1.5 to 2 times higher than that in the case of A1 bottom layer. Relationships between current density, anodization duration and forming voltage at a constant scanning rate of voltage have been obtained.

The well-known possibilities of the use of textiles and fibres in construction have developed into fields of application ranging from geotextiles to fibre-reinforced concrete, concrete reinforcing armatures made of fibre-reinforced polymers, usually carbon fibre composites (CFCs), textile membranes and sheeting and to constructions made of fibre-reinforced polymers as multi-layer composites. The present book is dedicated to the spectrum of building geotextiles are excluded, since they are less commonly used for building construction and are more common in earthworks, transit structures and landfills.

The layer number of each spectrum was represented as 0,1, 2, 3 and 4 for P(AN-co-AA), P(AN-co-AA)/CTAC, P(AN-co-AA)/CTAC/PAA, P(AN-co-AA)/CTAC/PAA/CTAC and P(AN-co-AA)/CTAC/PAA/CTAC/PAA, respectively.

However, EVAL as a monolithic film is quite unsatisfactoiy what is required, idealfy, is a multi-layer, composite film. One excellent composite, for example, is a five-layer fihn ABCBA in which A is branched potyethy-lene (35 /tm), B is a binding pofymer (5 /ttm), and C is EVAL (8 to 12 fim). Another barrier component widely used is rylon for example, for a wide range of food packaging a typical combination is ABCBD, in which A is branched polyet lene, B is bonding pofymer, C is nylon 6, and D is...

High molecular weight amine functional polymers, such as PEI, PVAm and PVAA are excellent adhesion promoters and serve as a strong tie-coat in the preparation of multi-layer composite structures between poly(ethylene terephthate) and ionomeric Surlyn . Using near infra-red spectroscopy, peel strength and heat seal data, we have... 

The stress o-a can be determined from the sum of the residual stress and the applied stress due to bending moment, where in the latter case the formulas for the bending of multi-layered composites have to be used Finally, using the Irwin relationship Gi = K]/E the toughness was converted into crack resistance. 

Continuous extrusion is also advantageous for coextrusion. Different materials are extruded as multi-layer composites to achieve the necessary part properties, for...
