Test method for the evaluation of the adhesive properties of fibre reinforced polymer composite joints

This document provides a test method for the determination of the adhesive properties in joints of continuous fibre reinforced polymer matrix composite structures using the Lap Strap specimen.
The evaluation includes the optional concurrent use of the non-destructive technique of the Electrical Resistance Change Method (ERCM) and/or Acoustic Emission (AE) for the monitoring of the debonding of the lap from the strap optionally. The ERCM NDE technique has a limited application only on carbon fibre composites due to the inherent electrical conductivity of the carbon fibres.
This test applies to composites manufactured with continuous carbon fibres (woven or unidirectional) and thermoset or thermoplastic matrices, with quasi-isotropic lamination. This methodology can be used on repairable or self-healing composites in order to estimate the repair or healing efficiency respectively.
Safety aspects about manufacturing and mechanical testing of the composites are excluded.

Prüfverfahren zur Bewertung der Hafteigenschaften von faserverstärkten Polymerverbundverbindungen

Preskusna metoda za ovrednotenje adhezijskih lastnosti kompozitnih spojev iz polimerov, ojačenih z vlakni

Ta dokument podaja preskusno metodo za določanje adhezijskih lastnosti spojev kompozitnih konstrukcij iz polimernih materialov s polimerno matrico, ojačeno z vlakni, z uporabo vzorca preklopnega spoja z jezičkom (Lap Strap).
Vrednotenje vključuje neobvezno sočasno uporabo neporušitvene tehnike metode spreminjanja električnega upora (ERCM) in/ali akustične emisije (AE) za izbirno spremljanje odstopanja jezička s pasnice. Uporaba tehnike neporušitvenega vrednotenja z metodo spreminjanja električnega upora je zaradi svojstvene električne prevodnosti ogljikovih vlaken omejena le na kompozite iz ogljikovih vlaken.
Ta preskus se uporablja za kompozite, izdelane iz kontinuiranih ogljikovih vlaken (tkanih ali enosmernih) in termoreaktivne ali termoplastične matrice s kvazi-izotropnim laminiranjem. Ta metodologija se lahko uporablja za popravljive ali samozdravilne kompozite, da se oceni učinkovitost popravljanja oziroma zdravljenja.
Varnostni vidiki proizvodnje in mehanskega preskušanja kompozitov so izključeni.

Introduction
Advanced fibre reinforced polymer composites, due to their lightweight, are used in aeronautics,
aerospace, automotive, and naval activities (e.g., aircraft fuselage, wind turbines, gears, chassis, etc.).
Skin-stiffened or “stringer run-outs” structures are used mostly in aerospace and are very sensitive to
local damages. Usually, the stringer tends to debond from the skin, and then the delamination may further
propagate in the skin. The mechanical characterization of these specimens is both time-consuming and
material intensive.
This document describes a modified test method used in a European project to characterize delamination
at the tip of the flange and to understand ‘stringer run-out’ experienced in the manufacture of composite
large panel, typically greater than 0,5 m in any in-plane direction. The method employed a simplified joint
configuration via a lap-strap geometry. The results of the work showed that the simplified lap-strap
specimens showed the same damage mechanisms as the stringer run-out.
Firstly, the lap debonds from the strap and then the delamination may further propagate interplay in the
strap. It should be mentioned that failure in the lap -strap geometry is manifested in a mixed-mode. At
the early stages of the test, the adhesive layer between lap and strap fails in mode II, followed by mode I
failure at higher stress levels. This test method could also be used to evaluate the healing or repair
efficiency at self-healing or repairable composites or their knockdown effect (see 5.6).
Non-destructive Evaluation (NDE) techniques, for example Acoustic Emission, can be optionally applied
to the Lap Strap specimen with the mechanical testing. NDE techniques include Electrical Resistance
Change Method (ERCM) and Acoustic Emission (AE). These techniques could provide information about
the failure of the geometry and, additionally, information about the damage that was induced before
failure. They are strongly suggested in cases of poor mechanical properties of the adhesive.
