Total modulus=longitudinal modulus (g/cm)+transverse modulus (g/cm)

Draw ratio=longitudinal tensile strength (g/in)/transverse tensile strength (g/in)

The shape characteristic of different densities fibre structure measures

The shape characteristic measurement of different densities fibre structure comes via the edge projection optical profilometry that computer controls It obtains.The physical size of optical profilometer systematic survey test surfaces generates apparent height (z) to the side in x-y plane The map of displacement.Suitable optical profilometer instrument will have the visual field and x-y resolution ratio, so that the image of acquisition has line At least ten pixel of the property across measured most narrow feature.Suitable instrument is GFM Mikrocad system or equivalent, The ODSCAD software of edition 4 or 6 is run, is purchased from GFMessthechnik GmbH (Teltow, Germany).

If necessary, it in order to make sample suitably reflect the precise measurement of surface texture, is sprayed with superfine white powder Mist slightly sprays surface to be measured.Preferably, which is purchased from Helling GmbH (Heidgraben, Germany) NORD-TEST Developer U 89, sell the crackle for detecting metal object and welding.It is sprayed applying this Not long ago, sample should balance at least 2 hours under 23 DEG C ± 2 DEG C and 50% ± 2% relative humidity, and put down after spraying Weighing apparatus at least 2 hours.Carefully only minimum white required for the thin reflective white coating of deposition generation is spraying.

Sample should be balanced under 23 DEG C ± 2 DEG C and 50% ± 2% relative humidity soon before carrying out the measurements to It is 2 hours few.

The region of fibre structure to be measured is only limitted to the region with different densities area and does not include that may be present Other regions or area.Placing sample makes the surface with measurement hang down up, below the projection head of profilograph and with it Directly.According to the explanation of equipment manufacturers, and the illumination and reflection of the realization optimization summarized according to manufacturer require.It traps and protects Deposit digital picture.

Should be dismissed from the image of trapping not be region part to be measured image any part.Such cut must be It is carried out before any further image procossing, filtering or measurement analysis.The size of pattered region depending on the sample, institute The size of the cut image obtained can change between sample and image.

Before carrying out the measurements, image can be handled in instrument software, with the noise in slightly smoothed image, and reduce by In sample overall shape and the scrambling and fluctuation that generate.The noise filtration treatment includes removing inactive pixels value (those With the black picture element of gray value at the black extreme of tonal range), and (those are as system for removing kurtosis or anomaly peak The non-pixel being always on that meter exceptional value is identified by software).Then multinomial high-pass filter: n=8 is utilized with following setting, it is poor Value.For the sample with very small feature, in the case where it is difficult to that pattern characteristics are clearly viewed, Fourier is in addition used Leaf filter (such as: 5mm wave filter, fine structure result) it may be useful.When using the Fourier filters, The feature bigger than filter length is removed as noise, and therefore reduces fluctuation, reduces the statistics near shape characteristic measured value Standard deviation.It is therefore important that the size of filter device therefor is greater than any structure of interest, in order to avoid filter out the feature. Processed image, shape characteristic image shown in such as Figure 14, can be shown, analyze and measure.Then Figure 14 is cut simultaneously Via the scrambling generated with the total ripple removed due to sample that flattened with multinomial (n=8 difference) filters filter.

Then it is measured by processed shape characteristic image to obtain spatial parameter difference in height (E) and transition region field width It spends (T).These measurements draw linearity sector of interest in the shape characteristic image on the surface x-y of sample using instrument software Then domain is realized along these straight line gernertion height distribution maps.Linearity region of interest is drawn, so that they are across continuum The center in domain and adjacent discrete area, to multiple and different position samples in each image.Line is drawn, so that they are perpendicular to mistake The angle of region long axis is crossed by each transitional region between continuum and discrete regions to point, as shown in figure 15.Such as Figure 15 institute Show, a series of linearity regions of interest is drawn across continuum and discrete regions, with the angle perpendicular to transitional region long axis By each transitional region to point.Then from height distribution map measurement parameter (E) and (T), the height distribution map is by these concerns Linearity region generate.

In height distribution map, the x- axis of figure represents the length of line, and y- axis represents the surface perpendicular to sample plane Vertical height.Difference in height (E) arrives adjacent depression as the peak maximum in height distribution map shown in Figure 16 in mircrometer gauge The vertical line distance of minimum point measures.As shown in figure 16, it is drawn by shape characteristic image along linearity region of interest The height distribution of system shows multiple differences in height (E) measured value.In general, this represent between continuum and adjacent discrete area Maximum vertical height it is poor, or vice versa.Transitional region width (T) is distributed in mircrometer gauge as height as shown in figure 17 It is measured on figure across the x- axial extent of the curve at the center of difference in height (E) 60 (60%) percent.As shown in figure 17, pass through Shape characteristic image shows multiple transitional region width (T) along the height distribution that linearity region of interest is drawn.It is logical Often, this represents the rate changed from continuum to adjacent discrete area, or vice versa.

In the case where sample is with seeming to be divided into the discrete regions of two or more discrete types, such as seen by range estimation Examine their overall shape, size, height and density of measurement, independent (E) and (T) value then will for every kind of discrete regions type with The adjacent continuous region of pairing is measured.

If sample is rendered obvious by the pattern for providing more than one discrete regions, each figure at the different location of product Case will all have (E) and (T) value measured independently of one or more of the other pattern.

If sample has first area and adjacent second area, wherein the first area and second area are at them Apparent height on be rendered obvious by out difference, then product will have (E) and (T) value for measuring from these regions.In such case Under, it will illustrate according to all methods given herein and first area and second area replace continuum described in this method Both domain and discrete regions.

For each pattern to be tested, the product sample being measured in parallel to five is imaged, and comes from each The measurement of replicate samples, by least ten differences in height (E) of each discrete regions type and ten of each discrete regions type Transitional region width (T) composition.The process is repeated for each plane of each sample.Record, which comes from, has (E) most (E) and (T) value for the plane being worth greatly.With regard to five will be come from for specific pattern and discrete regions type each parameter calculated The value of each in a replicate samples is averaged together to obtain the end value of each parameter.
