Thermal mending in E-glass reinforced poly(epsilon-caprolactone)/epoxy blends

Véronique Michaud, Amaël Maximilien Cohades

Blends of difunctional epoxy monomer with a 4,4'-diaminodiphenylsulfone hardener and poly(epsilon-caprolactone) (PCL) were used as a self-healing matrix in woven glass fibre-reinforced polymer composites (FRPs). FRPs with these blends (containing 0, 25 and ...

Damage recovery after impact in E-glass reinforced poly(epsilon-caprolactone)/epoxy blends

Véronique Michaud, Amaël Maximilien Cohades

Damage recovery after low-velocity impact has been assessed in woven E-glass fibre-reinforced polymer composites with an epoxy matrix and a blend of epoxy and 25 vol% of poly(e-caprolactone) (PCL). Impact was carried out at three energy levels (8.5, 17, 34 ...

Ductility and strain rate-dependency of adhesively-bonded timber joints

Myrsini Angelidi

One of the most important characteristics of load-bearing structures is ductility, i.e. the ability of a material or a structure to sustain inelastic deformation prior to failure, without loss of resistance. The topic of this PhD Thesis was to develop duct ...
