    The effect of specimen width-to-hole diameter ratio(W/D),and the ratio of edge distance to hole diameter(E/D)on the bearing strength of twill glass fabric/epoxy composites were performed experimentally.Single-hole bolted-loaded specimens were tested for their tension response.Failure propagation and failure type were observed on the specimens.The influence of the joint geometry on the strength of the bolted-loaded composites was evaluated. The experimental results show that the load capacity of glass-fabric-reinforced epoxy laminates with bolted connection increased with increasing W and E.However,the E/D ratio that is beyond 3 and the W/D ratio that is beyond 4 have an insignificant effect on the load capability of the connection.

    The viscosity,reactivity and gel time of novolac cyanate ester resin synthesized by a modified cyanogens halide-phenol method were characterized.The mechanical properties and thermal properties of cured resins and its fiber-reinforced composites were tested.The results showed that the gel time of uncured resin could greatly affected by ambience,which is much shorter in air than in an atmosphere.The cured resin has excellent thermal properties than high char yield.Improved mechanical properties,as compared to that of novolac resin were achieved for the cured resins and composites.

    The influence of coupling agents of GF and grafting modification of matrix on the mechanical properties of GF was studied.The interface bonding state was also investigated using SEM.The results show that the silanized GF can not form an effective interfacial adhesion with the unmodified PP,however it can form an effective interfacial adhesion with the maleic-anhydridegrafting modified PP.And the latter can efficiently improve the mechanical properties of composite.Furthermore,the type of coupling agent can also affect the properties of composite to some extent.

    Hollow glass microspheres are used as a key material to produce syntactic foams.Surface modification of the microspheres is very important for improving properties of the foams.However,few researches are focused on effects of process of surface modification on properties of the microspheres,which would influence the properties of the foams.In the present work,We studied the effects through measuring particle density and crush strength of microspheres,based on the production of microspheres.The results showed that particle density of microspheres reduced with increasing time and acidity of aqueous solution since water erode glass shell.At the same time,broken ratio increased.Aqueous solution of Al2(SO4)3 could increase crush strength because of formation of new film on surface of the microspheres.

    The properties of epoxy film 5228A are analyzed by using rheometer and differential scanning calorimetry(DSC).Curing system of resin film infusion is set,based on the results.Laminates are formed,which is reinforced by T700-12k carbon fiber non crimp fabric(NCF) and ply orientation is [(0,90)/(±45)]s.The mechanical properties of laminates are tested.The interlaminar shear strength is 25.3% higher than that of prepreg laminate.A hat-shape beam is successfully fabricated,which dimension is 1000×200×37mm.The quality of beam is inspected with ultrasonic non destructive test(NDT) and metalloscope.The results validate that the beam is compact and non-defective.It will be utilized in a primary structure of satellite.The research shows that epoxy film 5228A has a good processibility,and RFI is suitable for manufacturing complex composite material parts.

    The influence of different single filling materials and the mixture of the two different filling materials on the coefficient of thermal expansion of the external layer and structure layer of compound artificial marble have been studied.The results show that when the external layer is packed with single filling materials,the filling materials with different size have different effects.When the filling materials are mixed with the resin with the ratio of 2 ∶1 and CaCO3 of 200 meshes are packed,the coefficient of thermal expansion is the smallest of all single filling materials,the value of which is 2.3×10-5/℃.The effect of the compound of two different filling materials is better than the single ones.When CaCO3 of 200 meshes are mixed with color sands of 80~120 meshes by the ratio of 2 ∶1,the coefficient of thermal expansion is smaller than any other compound padding,the value of which is 1.85×10-5/℃.When the single filling materials of polystyrene grain peanut shell grain are packed in...更多 the structure layer,the coefficient of thermal expansion to the structure layer can reach 2.0×10-5/℃,as in the case where.When polystyrene grain of 1.7 percent or peanut shell grain of 10 percents are packed.It matches to the coefficient of the external layer.When the compound padding is selected,fixing the polystyrene grain at 35 percent,the coefficient of the thermal expansion to the structure layer can reach 2.0×10-5/℃ with the peanut shell grain of 9 percent.The flaw is caused by the single padding is inhibited,which might be due to the coordination effect.
