Cobalt Molybdate Incorporated Thermoset Composites: Preparation and Characterization

Abstract:

Piezo-chromic oxides are able to mark pressure or strain by a drastic color change. In this paper, CoMoO4 molybdate compound and related thermoset composites were prepared in lab. The distribution of CoMoO4 oxide in the thermoset matrix was first investigated via SEM. Moreover, the effects on the thermal and mechanical properties with the addition of CoMoO4 oxide were further analyzed. The piezo-chromic characteristic for CoMoO4 incorporated thermoset composites were verified with compression test. The color change can be clear visualized at a strain level close to the yield point of the composite blends. This study has the potential to open new directions to piezo-chromic polymeric materials as early damage detector.
