Manufacturing of thermoplastic composites
Makariv, Štefan ; Gregor, Lukáš (referee) ; Zouhar, Jan (advisor)
This thesis investigates the mechanical properties and application possibilities for use in the manufacture of functional parts of Endumax Shield XF33 and Twaron CT 747 TH110 thermoplastic composite materials intended for ballistic applications. To investigate the properties of the materials, it was necessary to design and fabricate a prototype pressing jig with a heating and cooling system for the production of composite material samples by the hot-pressing method. The steps during the design of the pressing jig and the subsequent production of the samples were described. The specimens were subjected to mechanical tensile and flexural tests. The results of the mechanical tests were compared with those of the autoclave produced Twaron CT 747 ER68 reactoplastic composite material and with the results of investigations of materials with similar compositions. The evaluation of the properties showed that the investigated thermoplastic composite materials do not have the properties for use in the manufacture of functional parts. The process conditions may have influenced the properties. Further technical work was recommended to investigate the process conditions in detail.
