ozone modification method and air-oxidation were used for the surface treatment of polyacrylonitrile(pan)-based carbon fiber. the surface characteristics of carbon fibers were characterized by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (xps). the interfacial properties of carbon fiber reinforced polyamide 6 (cf/pa6) composites were investigated by means of the single fiber pull-out tests. as a result, it...

Fiber shedding is a critical problem in biomedical textile debridement materials, which leads to infection and impairs wound healing. In this work, single fiber pull-out test was proposed as an in vitro evaluation for the fiber shedding property of a textile pile debridement material. Samples with different structural design (pile densities, numbers of ground yarns and coating times) were prepa...

background: scuba diving is one of the fastest growing sports in the world. the objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of pressure variations to which divers are exposed on the pull out strength of glass fiber post luted with different cements. materials and methods: in this in vitro study, 120 extracted, single-rooted lower premolars were endodontically treated. they were randomly ...

The effect of zinc phosphate (ZP) and zinc calcium phosphate (ZCP) coatings on the reinforcing mechanisms of smooth steel fiber in cementitious matrix have been studied. The results of pull out tests illustrated that by coating smooth steel fiber the pull-out load may be increased up to 100%. The effect of zinc phosphate coating on interface bonding was more than zinc-calcium phosphate coating....

The properties of the fiber/matrix interface in composites have an influence on their overall performance. Common methods for studying the interface are micromechanical tests that load a single fiber/matrix interface to failure. Two popular tests are the microbond test [1] and the single-fiber, pull-out test [2]. In a microbond test a droplet of matrix is sheared off the fiber by pulling the fi...

The energy release rate for propagation of a debond in a single-fiber pull out test was derived analytically. The key finding was that an accurate analysis can be derived by a global energy analysis that includes effects of residual stresses and interfacial friction but does not need to include the details of the stress state at the interfacial crack tip. By comparison to finite elements analys...

Hole quality plays a crucial role in the production of close-tolerance holes utilized in aircraft assembly. Through drilling experiments of carbon fiber-reinforced plastic composites (CFRP), this study investigates the impact of varying drilling feed and speed conditions on fiber pull-out geometries and resulting hole quality parameters. For this study, hole quality parameters include hole size...
