An original method to increase the mechanical strength of adhesively joined carbon fiber-reinforced plastics (CFRPs) and honeycomb CFRP sandwich structures by etching is proposed, based on sulfuric acid etching of the CFRP surface.

Abstract
An original method to increase the mechanical strength of adhesively joined carbon fiber-reinforced plastics (CFRPs) and honeycomb CFRP sandwich structures by etching is proposed, based on sulfuric acid etching of the CFRP surface. Etched composites are joined by a novel phenolic resin-based adhesive and are cured, and their cross section is observed by FESEM. Etching of CFRP was aimed to obtain a “brush”-like composite to be infiltrated by the adhesive, giving a fiber-reinforced, stronger composite joint. This method gave a 100% increase in the lap shear strength for the adhesively joined etched CFRP, compared to the non-etched ones.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
