Separator ply

Tires, like everything that rolls, encounter resistance. The resistance encountered by the tire rolling across a surface is a major factor in determining the amount of energy needed to move vehicles. Since Dunlop s original efforts, a considerable number of tire design improvements have been made that have tended to cause a decrease in tire power consumption. For example separate plies of cotton cord were intro-... 

The more traditional method to make laminates uses separate plies combined with adhesives, which can be divided into groups—molten, water-based and solvent-based. Wax and polythene extrusion are the main molten laminants. Water-based glues are often used to combine paper and foil. Solvent-based adhesives include the polymethanes, but recent developments use water dispersions and molten curing systems to replace the solvent systems. Cross-linking reactions develop high heat and product resistance in all these adhesives. 

Select the layup to avoid a mismatch of laminate properties with those of the adjoining structures, or provide a shear/separator ply. 

From Figure 1. ll we see that a quantitative separation of Cu + from Pb + and Cd + can be accomplished if the aqueous phase is buffered to a pli of less than... 

This material has been known for many years, being used originally in the making of electric lamp filaments. In principle vulcanised fibre is produced by the action of zinc chloride on absorbent paper. The zinc chloride causes the cellulosic fibres to swell and be covered with a gelatinous layer. Separate layers of paper may be plied together and the zinc chloride subsequently removed to leave a regenerated cellulose laminate.

The fundamental analysis of a laminate can be explained, in principle, by use of a simple two-layered cross-ply laminate (a layer with fibers at 0° to the x-direction on top of an equal-thickness layer with fibers at 90° to the x-direction). We will analyze this laminate approximately by considering what conditions the two unbonded layers in Figure 4-3 must satisfy in order for the two layers to be bonded to form a laminate. Imagine that the layers are separate but are subjected to a load in the x-direction. The force is divided between the two layers such that the x-direction deformation of each layer is identical. That is, the laminae in a laminate must deform alike along the interface between the layers or else fracture must existl Accordingly, deformation compatibility of layers is a requirement for a laminate. Because of the equal x-direction deformation of each layer, the top (0°) layer has the most x-direction ress because it is stiffer than the bottom (90°) layer in the x-direction./ Trie x-direction stresses in the top and bottom layers can be shown to have the relation... 

The failure criterion must be applied to determine the maximum values of Nx and AT that can be sustained without failure of any layer. Actually, the failure criterion is applied to each layer separately. For the special orientation of cross-ply laminates, the Tsai-Hill failure criterion for each layer can be expressed as... 

For cross-ply laminates, a knee in the load-deformation cun/e occurs after the mechanical and thermal interactions between layers uncouple because of failure (which might be only degradation, not necessarily fracture) of a lamina. The mechanical interactions are caused by Poisson effects and/or shear-extension coupling. The thermal interactions are caused by different coefficients of thermal expansion in different layers because of different angular orientations of the layers (even though the orthotropic materials in each lamina are the same). The interactions are disrupted if the layers in a laminate separate. 

The presence of D g 26 governing differential equation and the boundary conditions renders a closed-form solution impossible. That is, in analogy to both bending and buckling of a symmetric angle-ply (or anisotropic) plate, the variation in lateral displacement, 5vy, cannot be separated into a function of x alone times a function of y alone. Again, however, the Rayleigh-Ritz approach is quite useful. The expression... 

Cause of failure Ply separation caused by substandard pulley diameter (Figure 58.11). 

Thus, they share exactly the same solution (H) and performance criteria (y ) spaces. Furthermore, since their role is simply to estimate y for a given X, no search procedures S are attached to classical pattern recognition techniques. Consequently, the only element that dilfers from one classification procedure to another is the particular mapping procedure / that is used to estimate y(x) and/ or ply = j x). The available set of (x, y) data records is used to build /, either through the construction of approximations to the decision boundaries that separate zones in the decision space leading to different y values (Fig. 2a), or through the construction of approximations to the conditional probability functions, piy =j ). 

Splitting into layers usually applied to the separation of the plies from which a composite rubber article has been built up. 

An undesired discontinuity in a rubber article (uncured or cured) resulting from ply separation or from the trapping of air during assembly or during vulcanisation. 

Pressure waves of the same nature as sound waves but of greater frequency, i.e., shorter wavelength, and therefore inaudible. Ultrasonic waves have been used for the detection of ply separations and other voids in rubber-textile composites such as tyres, and for thickness measurement of coatings, etc., where access is possible from only one side. 

The various tyre components are built together on the building drum of a tyre-making machine. The builder applies strips at appropriate points to provide a gradual transition from one major component to the next. Many of the processes have been automated, but operator skill is still important. Air entrapment between layers must be avoided to prevent ply separation in service. 

CV s were nearly reversible with peak separations in the range of 72-89 mV. As shown in Table 6, the resultant Cu(III/II) potentials covered the range of 0.4 to 1.0 V with the di- and tripeptide complexes generally in the range of 0.77-0.99 V and the tetrapeptides at lower potentials of approximately 0.65 V (versus SHE). The potential of the Cu(III/II) complex with the quadru-ply deprotonated tetrapeptide C cydo-(y3-alanylglycyl-/J-alanylglycyl)) was subsequently shown to have an aqueous potential of only 0.48 V [202].
