Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of micro-droplet debonding sample preparation, and particularly relates to a preparation device and method for vacuum-assisted preparation of thermosetting resin micro-droplet debonding samples. Background Art

[0002] The micro-droplet debonding method is a commonly used method for testing the interfacial strength of single fibers of thermosetting resins. The specific operation is to apply a matrix solution or sol on a single fiber filament, and after curing, micro-droplets are formed. By applying a pair of scrapers on both sides of the micro-droplets and loading along the fiber axis, a shearing force is generated to detach the micro-droplets from the fiber filament, and the maximum load during the process is recorded. Combining the micro-droplet length and fiber diameter, the interfacial shear strength is obtained using a formula.

[0003] The axisymmetry of the specimen morphology and the resin uniformity are the most direct influencing factors on the interfacial micro-mechanical properties, directly affecting the measurement of the interfacial shear strength. The "sphere" shape is the most ideal model, so that when the micro-droplet sphere contacts the blade, the forces on both sides are balanced, and the value of the measured maximum load is more accurate. Usually, due to the characteristics of the material itself and the influence of artificial sample preparation, semi-circular regions will be formed at both ends of the resin microsphere after the resin matrix infiltrates the fiber, and the ideal "sphere" shape cannot be achieved. An overly large semi-circular region will affect the measurement of the embedding length, resulting in errors in the measurement of the embedding length and directly affecting the measurement of the shear strength. In addition, the phenomenon of uneven resin distribution during the sample preparation process, where the resin matrix around the fiber is larger on one side and smaller on the other side, and the "burr" phenomenon on the surface of the resin microsphere will directly affect the final test results, with large data discreteness. Therefore, the preparation quality of the micro-droplet sample directly affects the accuracy of the test.

[0004] Patent Invention CN 117804871 B discloses a curing device for basalt fiber micro-droplet debonding samples. By driving the micro-droplet mold to rotate using a driving mechanism, the photosensitive resin located in the micro-droplet mold is evenly distributed in the micro-droplet cavity under the action of centrifugal force. At the same time, a photosensitive light source is used to continuously and evenly irradiate the photosensitive resin in the rotating micro-droplet mold to improve the roundness of the micro-droplet sphere of the micro-droplet sample after curing. Although this method can prepare micro-droplets with a relatively high roundness, the operation is relatively complex, and the relationship between the transverse diameter of the micro-droplet sphere, the fiber diameter, and the embedding length of the fiber in the micro-droplet is not clear. If the embedding length of the fiber in the micro-droplet is too large, the debonding force required for the test will be greater than the tensile strength of the fiber, resulting in the fiber being broken before the micro-sphere is debonded. At the same time, it cannot be too small, and it is necessary to ensure that the volume fraction of the resin matrix is above 98%. Otherwise, the micro-droplet will be dissimilated and contrary to the spherical shape and fail, bringing certain uncertainties to the curing molding. At the same time, through rotation and centrifugal action, it is impossible to ensure a tight combination between the fiber and the resin interface, and small air bubbles are likely to be generated at the fiber and resin, affecting the result of the interfacial shear strength.

[0042] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions in the present invention, the following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0043] As Figure 1 shown, the preparation device and method for vacuum-assisted preparation of thermosetting resin microdroplet debonding samples in an embodiment of the present invention can improve the surface performance of the samples, reduce surface defects, and at the same time can accurately control the microdroplet size. Even if the carbon fiber models are different, circularity that meets the requirements can be prepared according to the method in the present invention, and the sample preparation has good stability and high efficiency. The vacuum condition can greatly eliminate interface defects and resin matrix defects. With a fixed method, when the test personnel master this method proficiently, even if different test personnel operate, samples can be prepared in batches, and the discreteness of the test data is small.

[0044] As Figure 1 shown, the preparation device for vacuum-assisted preparation of thermosetting resin microdroplet debonding samples includes an upper mold 1, a lower mold 2 and a clamping assembly 3. A glue injection port 4 is provided on one end face of the upper mold 1, and the glue injection port 4 is located on the middle end face of the upper mold 1.

[0045] The glue injection port 4 is a threaded hole, which is convenient for quick connection with the glue injection joint.

[0046] The lower mold 2 is matched with the upper mold 1 and is located on the bottom end face of the upper mold 1. Matching mold cavities 8 are provided on both the upper mold 1 and the lower mold 2, and the mold cavity 8 is a cylindrical linear structure.

[0047] Furthermore, a rubber sleeve in the shape of a semi-cylindrical tube is bonded to the inner end face of the mold cavity 8, and the inner diameter of the rubber sleeve is smaller than the fiber diameter

[0048] The size of the glue injection pipeline 14 is larger than the size of the mold cavity 8

[0049] As Figures 2 - 5 shown, both the upper mold 1 and the lower mold 2 are provided with glue injection pipelines 14 that are matched with the glue injection port 4, and the diameter of the glue injection pipeline 14 is smaller than the diameter of the glue injection port 4.

[0050] The end faces where the upper mold 1 and the lower mold 2 are fitted are provided with micro-droplet holes 7 that match the injection ports 4. A vacuum pump 13 connected to the injection pipeline 14 is installed at the bottom end face of the lower mold 2, and the injection ports 4, the micro-droplet holes 7, and the injection pipeline 14 are connected and communicated with each other.

[0051] It should be noted that the size of the micro-droplet hole 7 depends on the fiber embedding length L and the micro-droplet diameter d. If the fiber embedding length L in the micro-droplet is too large, the debonding force required for testing will be greater than the strength P of the fiber, resulting in the fiber being broken before the microsphere debonds. At the same time, it cannot be too small, and it must ensure that the volume fraction of the resin matrix is above 98%. Otherwise, the micro-droplet will be dissimilated and fail contrary to the spherical shape. Therefore, the fiber embedding length L and the micro-droplet diameter d can be determined according to the following formula:

[0052] Among them, d is the micro-droplet diameter, df is the fiber diameter, L is the fiber embedding length, Fmax is the maximum tensile force value when the micro-droplet debonds under tensile action of the specimen, P is the single-filament strength of the fiber, and π is the pi. The values of the micro-droplet diameter d and the fiber embedding length L are approximately equal. is the ceiling function, is the floor function.

[0053] As Figures 2 - 6 shown, the clamping assembly 3 is fixedly connected to a pair of opposite end faces of the lower mold 2. The clamping assembly 3 includes multiple groups of clamping blocks 11. Limiting grooves 12 are provided inside the multiple groups of clamping blocks 11, and springs are provided inside the limiting grooves 12. The clamping blocks 11 are made of rubber material. Under the push of the springs in the limiting grooves 12, the clamping blocks 11 clamp and fix the two ends of the straightened carbon fiber tow, thereby preventing the carbon fiber tow from being coiled and loosened in the mold cavity 8.

[0054] Furthermore, multiple first bolt holes 5 are provided on the clamping assembly 3, and second threaded holes 6 that match the multiple first bolt holes 5 are provided on the lower mold 2. Bolts are threadedly connected to the first bolt holes 5 and the second threaded holes 6. The clamping assembly 3 is fixed to a pair of opposite end faces of the lower mold 2 by threadedly connecting bolts to the first bolt holes 5 and the second threaded holes 6.

[0055] Specifically, it is fixed to both ends of the lower mold 2 through the clamping assembly 3, and the mold is closed by the cooperation of the positioning holes 9 and the positioning bosses 10.

[0056] Multiple positioning bosses 10 are evenly distributed on one side end face of the upper mold 1. Positioning holes 9 that match the positioning bosses 10 are provided on the lower mold 2, and the injection ports 4 are clamped to the inner wall end face of the positioning holes 9.

[0057] As Figures 1 - 5 shown, a preparation method for a vacuum-assisted preparation of a thermosetting resin micro-droplet debonding sample includes the following steps:

[0058] S1. Preparation of single fiber filaments:

[0059] Select the carbon fiber type and measure the fiber diameter df;

[0060] Cut a carbon fiber bundle longer than the length of the sample preparation mold, and then separate the single filaments.

[0061] S2. Determination of the strength of single fiber filaments:

[0062] Measure the strength of the single fiber filament as P.

[0063] S3. Determine the specific parameters of the sample preparation mold

[0064] Use the sample preparation device to confirm the size of the microdroplet hole 7:

[0065] S4. Preparation of microdroplet samples

[0066] Use the sample preparation device to fix the clamping assembly 3 on both end faces of the lower mold 2. Apply a release agent to the microdroplet holes 7 of the upper mold 1 and the lower mold 2 respectively. Then take a carbon fiber single filament and place it in the mold cavity 8. Fix both ends of the lower mold 2 through the clamping assembly 3. Through the mutual clamping and matching of the positioning holes 9 and the positioning bosses 10 on the upper mold 1 and the lower mold 2, close the mold. Open the vacuum pump 13 and the injection port 4, and start pouring the resin. The resin flows through the injection pipeline 14 to the microdroplet hole 7. After the resin completely infiltrates the microdroplet hole 7, close the injection port 4. Keep the vacuum for a period of time and then close the vacuum pump 13. Cure according to the resin curing conditions. Finally, demold and take out the carbon fiber microdroplet sample for testing.

[0067] Example 1

[0068] S1. Preparation of carbon fiber single filaments:

[0069] Select T300 carbon fiber and measure the carbon fiber diameter df = 6.75 μm;

[0070] Cut a carbon fiber bundle about 13 cm long, and then ultrasonically separate the single filaments with an ethanol aqueous solution.

[0071] S2. Determination of the strength of single fiber filaments:

[0072] Measure the strength of the single fiber filament as P = 0.66 MPa.

[0073] S3. Determine the specific parameters of the sample preparation mold

[0074] The sample preparation mold includes an upper mold 1, a lower mold 2, a clamping assembly 3 and an injection port 4. The upper mold 1 and the lower mold 2 are symmetric structures, and are internally provided with microdroplet holes 7 and a mold cavity 8. The size of the microdroplet hole 7 mainly depends on the carbon fiber embedding length L and the microdroplet diameter d, and can be determined according to the following formula:

[0075] Therefore, the diameter of the micro-droplet holes in the sample preparation mold is 60 μm, the diameter of the mold cavity is 8 μm, and the diameter of the resin injection pipe 14 is 9 μm.

[0076] S4. Preparation of micro-droplet samples

[0077] First, fix the clamping assembly 3 on both sides of the lower mold 2 with bolts, and apply a mold release agent to the micro-droplet holes 7 of the upper mold 1 and the lower mold 2 respectively. Then, take a single carbon fiber filament and pass it through both ends of the clamping assembly 3 and straighten it. At this time, under the push of the spring in the limiting groove 12, the clamping blocks 11 clamp and fix both ends of the straightened carbon fiber bundle, thus preventing the carbon fiber bundle from winding and loosening in the mold cavity 8. Select a rubber sleeve with an inner diameter of 6 μm and paste it on the mold cavity 8. Then, achieve the mold closing of the mold through the cooperation of the positioning holes 9 and the positioning bosses 10. Then, perform vacuum degassing on the required resin, and then turn on the vacuum pump 13 and the resin injection port 4 to start pouring the resin. The resin flows through the resin injection pipe 14 to the micro-droplet holes 7. Wait until the resin completely infiltrates the micro-droplet holes 7, close the resin injection port 4, keep the vacuum for a period of time, and then turn off the vacuum pump 13. Cure according to the resin curing conditions, and finally demold. Take out the first bolt hole 5 [i.e., as Figure 6 shown] for testing, and repeat the sample preparation 10 times.

[0078] Comparative Example 1:

[0079] Select T300 carbon fiber, cut a carbon fiber bundle about 13 cm long, then ultrasonically separate the single filaments with an ethanol aqueous solution and fix them on a hollow rack. Then, dip a small amount of resin with a glass rod and drop it on the carbon fiber single filaments. Finally, place the rack in an oven for curing. After completion, take out the carbon fiber micro-droplet samples for testing, and repeat the sample preparation 10 times.

[0080] Compare the sample preparation effects of the micro-droplet debonding samples in Example 1 of the present invention and Comparative Example 1, and the obtained results are as Figure 8 shown. By observing the test results of the examples and the comparative examples, it is found that although the existing sample preparation method is easy to operate, the sample preparation effect is poor, the repeatability is low, the requirements for personnel operation are high, and it is very difficult to prepare samples with high roundness and good interfaces. The present invention uses a sample preparation mold for sample preparation, and can obtain samples with regular shapes and high roundness. At the same time, through vacuum-assisted resin perfusion, samples with good fiber and resin interfaces can be obtained, which are uniform and bubble-free, with good sample preparation stability and high efficiency. Even if different experimental personnel operate, samples can be prepared in batches.

[0081] As can be seen from the above technical solutions, a method for vacuum-assisted preparation of a thermosetting resin fiber microdroplet debonding sample provided by the present invention has the following advantages: it provides a sample preparation method with controllable and reliable process. The sample preparation mold has a simple structure and is easy to operate. It can produce samples with regular shapes and high vacuum degrees. At the same time, according to the different diameters of fiber types, the mold parameter microdroplet hole size is changed, that is, the fiber embedding length and microdroplet diameter are adjusted, and then the microdroplet roundness is adjusted. This not only solves the problem of microdroplet roundness, but also clarifies the relationship between the microdroplet diameter, fiber diameter and fiber embedding length in the microdroplet. At the same time, the problem of the interface combination between the fiber and the resin is solved by vacuum-assisted resin perfusion. The repeatability is relatively high, greatly reducing the operation requirements for the test personnel, improving the sample preparation efficiency, and at the same time improving the stability of sample preparation, making the test data less discrete.
