摘要
In this study, a flexible polymer (polysiloxane) containing -Si-O-Si- molecular chains and epoxy groups (EPSE) was prepared. The effect of EPSE on the cryogenic mechanical properties of epoxy matrix and carbon fiber (CF) reinforced epoxy composite laminate was investigated in detail. At RT, with an EPSE content of 8 wt %, the failure strain and fracture toughness K-IC value of epoxy resin was improved by 69.4% and 10.4%, respectively. At cryogenic temperature, the tensile strength, failure strain and K-IC value of EPSE-epoxy reached a maximum of 207 MPa, 3.13%, and 2.60 MPa.m(1/2), respectively. Micro-morphology of the fracture surface indicated that the incorporation of EPSE improved the resistance to crack growth. The flexural strength of CF/EPSE-epoxy laminate at 77 K was 17.2% higher than that of CF/neat epoxy laminate, which mainly attributed to the flexible -Si-O-Si- molecular chains in EPSE reducing the CF/matrix interface thermal stress. The transition of failure mode resulted in the jagged-shape load fluctuations in the load-displacement curves of laminates at 77 K. Thermal cycling affecting the flexural strength of CF/EPSE-epoxy laminate was mainly ascribed to the release of part of thermal residual stress and the formation of interface debonding.
