Measuring of Fiber/Matrix Adhesion in Thermoplastic Polymer Composites: A Preliminary Study

Article Preview

Abstract:

The possibilities of the application of microbond test and cylinder tests for determining the interfacial shear strength at the fiber-matrix interface in thermoplastic matrix polymer composites were investigated. Possibilities of test specimen preparation were also investigated. Finally the applicability of the method to make high precision measurement of interfacial shear strength was evaluated.
