Processing of Sustainable Cellular Biocomposites

Carole Boissard

Petroleum-based polymers and composites are commonly used in a wide variety of application fields. However ecological concerns, increasing oil prices and dwindling natural resources explain why nowadays industrial and public interest is more than ever focu ...

Plasticization of polylactide foams for tissue engineering

Jan-Anders Edvin Maansson, John Christopher Plummer, Pierre-Etienne Bourban, Matthieu Cuénoud

Supercritical CO2 foaming of amorphous and semicrystalline polylactides plasticized by blending with 20 wt% polyethylene glycol has been investigated as a means of producing low-stiffness bioresorbable scaffolds for tissue engineering. For a given set of f ...

The potential of wood fibers as reinforcement in cellular biopolymers

Jan-Anders Edvin Maansson, Pierre-Etienne Bourban, Matthieu Cuénoud, Razvan Cristian Neagu

Wood fiber-reinforced polylactic acid composite foams have been successfully produced using supercritical carbon dioxide. The addition of fibers had a strong effect on microstructure of the foams. An increase in wood fiber content implied smaller average c ...

Instability of Thin-Walled GFRP Webs in Cell-Core Sandwiches under Combined Bending and Shear Loads

Thomas Keller, Anastasios Vassilopoulos, Julia De Castro San Roman Fest, Behzad Dehghan Manshadi

An analytical investigation of the buckling/wrinkling behavior of GFRP webs in cell-core sandwiches subjected to combined in-plane shear and bending stresses is conducted. Web-core panels are modeled as long orthotropic plates stabilized by a relatively th ...

Water of functionalized microfibrillated cellulose as foaming agent for the elaboration of poly(lactic acid) biocomposites

Jan-Anders Edvin Maansson, Pierre-Etienne Bourban, Carole Boissard

This article presents a study on the foam processing of sustainable biocomposites made of polyl(actic acid) (PLA) and functionalized microfibrillated cellulose (MFC) using water as a foaming agent. MFC contains moisture and can be used as a water carrying ...

Activation volume in microcellular aluminium: Size effects in thermally activated plastic flow

Andreas Mortensen, Frédéric Diologent

Open-pore 99.99% pure Al and Al-5 wt.% Mg foam produced by replication, with pores either 400 or 75 gm in average diameter, are tested in compression with repeated relaxation cycles, at room temperature. Similar data are collected on pure aluminium. Estima ...

Contribution to shear wrinkling of GFRP webs in cell-core sandwiches

Thomas Keller, Anastasios Vassilopoulos, Julia De Castro San Roman Fest, Behzad Dehghan Manshadi

Glass-fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) cell-core sandwiches are composed of outer GFRP face sheets, a foam core, and a grid of GFRP webs integrated into the core to reinforce the shear load capacity. One of the critical failure modes of cell-core sandwich s ...

Biaxial Wrinkling of Thin-Walled GFRP Webs in Cell-Core Sandwiches

Behzad Dehghan Manshadi

Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) sandwich structures offer several advantages compared to structures made of traditional materials, such as high specific strength, good corrosion resistance, low thermal conductivity and rapid component installation. In this ...

Hole and notch sensitivity of aluminium replicated foam

Andreas Mortensen, Andreas Rossoll

The flow and failure behaviour of replicated pure aluminium foams in the presence of holes and notches is explored, varying the pore size and the notch depth or hole radius. Flat dog-bone tensile specimens containing a cylindrical hole, and cylindrical V-n ...
