Transition reinforcement

Composite Systems Provide Solutions in Mass Transit, Reinforced Plastics, Mar. 2003. Composites Support River Walkway, RP, Nov. 2003. [Pg.1044]

Polymer systems have been classified according to glass-transition temperature (T), melting poiat (T ), and polymer molecular weight (12) as elastomers, plastics, and fibers. Fillers play an important role as reinforcement for elastomers. They are used extensively ia all subclasses of plastics, ie, geaeral-purpose, specialty, and engineering plastics (qv). Fillets are not, however, a significant factor ia fibers (qv). [Pg.368]

Flammability. PhenoHcs have inherently low flammabiHty and relatively low smoke generation. For this reason they are widely used in mass transit, tiinnel-building, and mining. Fiber glass-reinforced phenoHc composites are capable of attaining the 1990 U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations for total heat release and peak heat release for aircraft interior facings (1,70). [Pg.302]

Polymers below the glass transition temperature are usually rather brittle unless modified by fibre reinforcement or by addition of rubbery additives. In some polymers where there is a small degree of crystallisation it appears that the crystallines act as knots and toughen up the mass of material, as in the case of the polycarbonates. Where, however, there are large spherulite structures this effect is more or less offset by high strains set up at the spherulite boundaries and as in the case of P4MP1 the product is rather brittle. [Pg.271]

Thus, it can be concluded that in the present iono-mer system, zinc stearate plays a dual role. First, below its melting point it reinforces the matrix and strengthens the ionic aggregates and, second, at a higher temperature it results in solvation of the ionic aggregates and plasticizes the system, thus, facilitating the transition from the rubbery state to the viscous flow state [23]. [Pg.444]

Third, sinks are not only the result of the causes listed above but also can occur whenever supporting or reinforcing ribs, flanges, or similar features are used in an attempt to provide functional service without changing the basic wall thickness of a product. If the appearance of a sink on the surface is objectionable, the ribs and transition radius should be proportioned so that their contribution to the sink is minimal. Sinks can usually be eliminated by changing the process controls that usually results in the unwanted longer cycle times. [Pg.183]

Rearrangement of sulfoxides 38a, b exhibited the interplay of several conformational factors. Both diastereomers afford predominant axial (trans) alcohol, but with opposite absolute configuration. The (R, R)-diastereomer strongly prefers the exo-transition state, whereas the (R, S)-isomer prefers the endo conformation. Hoffmann interprets these results in terms of an approximately 3-fold preference for the exo-transition state but a 6-fold preference for formation of an axial bond, these effects reinforcing each other in one isomer but opposing each other in the second. [Pg.729]

Indeed, the multi-layered model, applied to fiber reinforced composites, presented a basic inconsistency, as it appeared in previous publications17). This was its incompatibility with the assumption that the boundary layer, constituting the mesophase between inclusions and matrix, should extent to a thickness well defined by thermodynamic measurements, yielding jumps in the heat capacity values at the glass-transition temperature region of the composites. By leaving this layer in the first models to extent freely and tend, in an asymptotic manner, to its limiting value of Em, it was allowed to the mesophase layer to extend several times further, than the peel anticipated from thermodynamic measurements, fact which does not happen in its new versions. [Pg.174]

Fig. 17 presents the variation of the terms E((rf/r)n> and Em(rf/r), i in the mesophase layer for a 65 percent E-glass fiber-reinforced epoxy resin, as they have been derived from Eq. (48). It is wortwhile indicating the smooth transition of the Ermodulus to the Em-modulus at the region r == rf. Similar behaviour present all other compositions. [Pg.181]

Microdomain stmcture is a consequence of microphase separation. It is associated with processability and performance of block copolymer as TPE, pressure sensitive adhesive, etc. The size of the domain decreases as temperature increases [184,185]. At processing temperature they are in a disordered state, melt viscosity becomes low with great advantage in processability. At service temperamre, they are in ordered state and the dispersed domain of plastic blocks acts as reinforcing filler for the matrix polymer [186]. This transition is a thermodynamic transition and is controlled by counterbalanced physical factors, e.g., energetics and entropy. [Pg.133]
