Definitions
- the invention relates to a composite material comprising a laminate structure containing at least one fibre reinforced synthetic layer, which is in particular used as a structural material for aircraft and boats. Furthermore, the invention relates to a method of producing such a composite material.
- composite materials containing fibre reinforced synthetic layers require a number of properties to be met by this material. Firstly, the laminate structures have to be protected from water, atmospheric moisture and chemical ingression. Secondly, these structures have to be protected from mechanical damage and from deterioration by ultra-violet light. To meet these requirements, the composite materials in question are commonly coated with an adhesive film or an especially formulated resin to protect its surface. However, to provide a moisture sealing of the composite material being suitable to withstand the combination of mechanical attacks and sharp temperature differences, it has been found in practice that such coatings do not provide satisfactory- results .
- thermoplastic films are difficult to bond permanently to the composite and are easily damaged by mechanical attacks. Furthermore, these thermoplastic films do not present a vapor barrier having sufficient sealing properties. Moreover, in particular when used as a structural component for aircraft, thermoplastics do not offer a protection against lightning strikes. Finally, these thermoplastic films are relatively heavy.
- aluminium foils present a sufficient water and vapor barrier and are easy to bond to the composite, they are easy to damage and, most particularly, corrosive with Carbon. Furthermore, there is a mismatch between the thermal coefficient of expansion and the modulus of elasticity between the aluminium and the composite material.
- composites are made from epoxy or other resin which degrade through ultra-violet light exposure when not protected with ultra-violet resistant paint.
- these composite materials are quite difficult to paint. In general, these composite materials are black, which is difficult to cover.
- any surface preparation for painting is difficult without damaging the composite structure. Paint does not adhere well to some composite surfaces when exposed to rain erosion and other attacks. Finally, it is often necessary to strip the paint from the composite materials, even when used as structural material for aircraft, and both chemical and mechanical removal techniques run the risk of damage to the structure .
- an object of the invention to provide a composite structure, which does not present the drawbacks known from the prior art. It is another object of the invention to provide a material being suitable for use in aircraft, boats and other structure, which is light and strong, offers long durability even when exposed to variable and extreme climatic conditions. It is yet another object of the invention to provide a composite material having a moisture barrier property against atmospheric humidity and water, and which offers a shielding capacity against lightning strikes.
- a composite material comprising a laminate structure containing at least one fibre reinforced synthetic layer and a titanium foil constituting an outermost layer of the composite material.
- this titanium foil has a thickness of 100 ⁇ m or less.
- the metal meshes or fabrics often used to protect the composite parts against lightning strikes are rendered unnecessary, since the titanium foil according to the invention can provide the same function. Furthermore, any electrical or electronical equipment to be protected from interference is also protected by the titanium foil.
- the titanium foil according to the invention does also provide an adequate fire barrier.
- the titanium foil applied to the outermost layer can enhance the decorative appearance of the composite material. Since the titanium used for the production of the foil can contain white pigments, the paintability of the material is surprisingly improved.
- the composite material according to the invention can provide an off-axis mechanical reinforcement, since composite materials generally have better properties like strength, toughness and the like in a first direction than in a second direction being substantially perpendicular to this first direction.
- This dependency of the mechanical property on the orientation of the composite material can at least partially be overcome by a suitable orientation of the titanium foil applied to the surface of the synthetic layer.
- the composite material and the titanium foil can be produced by using conventional machines and processes.
- the thin gauge of the foil according to the invention will allow the conformity of the material to some compound contours. In this regard, the narrow width of the foil will also allow an overlapping and conformity to the contour of adjacent structural components or materials.
- a composite material for the use as structural material for aircraft or boats.
- the composite material according to the invention also serves as a burn-through barrier and/or as an electric shielding for electronic or electric components embedded in the composite material.
- a method for producing a composite material comprising the steps of providing at least one fibre reinforced synthetic layer and providing a titanium foil, wherein the first surface of the titanium foil facing the synthetic layer on which the titanium foil is to be applied is prepared for an adhesive bonding with the synthetic layer structure.
- the titanium foil has a thickness of 100 ⁇ m or less to achieve the object of the invention.
- the thickness of the titanium foil is 20 ⁇ m or less and in a most preferred embodiment the titanium foil has a thickness of about 10 ⁇ m.
- the light weight construction of the composite material is most preferably achieved without a significant deterioration of the shielding capacity against lightning strikes or the moisture barrier property of the titanium foil. Furthermore, this thickness of less than 20 ⁇ m for the titanium foil provides an optimum relationship between the mechanical requirements and the need for a light weight construction.
- the titanium foil is made out of a chemically pure (CP) titanium or 15,33,3,3 titanium or 6Al-4Va titanium. This provides a crystal structure of the titanium which does not change over the service life of the titanium foil and, therefore, provides an unchanged bondability between the synthetic layer and the titanium foil without any necessary further interlayer or processing of the materials.
- CP chemically pure
- 6Al-4Va titanium This provides a crystal structure of the titanium which does not change over the service life of the titanium foil and, therefore, provides an unchanged bondability between the synthetic layer and the titanium foil without any necessary further interlayer or processing of the materials.
- At least one of the fibre reinforced synthetic layers has a honeycomb structure. This provides a particularly strong structure, improves the light weight property of the material and offers remarkable insulation characteristics to the material due to the internal spaces created by the honeycomb cells and any coating layer applied thereto.
- the synthetic layer can be made out of any suitable material known to the skilled person.
- the synthetic layer contains a resin system, which is in a more preferred way reinforced by either graphite fibres or glass fibres or aramide fibres or combinations thereof.
- the synthetic layer according to the invention can contain a mixture of two or more resins, preferably epoxy resins, BMI or polyamide resins.
- resins preferably epoxy resins, BMI or polyamide resins.
- Such a material combination of resins on the one hand and titanium foil on the others offers a harmonized thermal expansion coefficient of the materials, so that a bonding between the composite material and its titanium foil on the outermost layer is not weakened, even if it is periodically subjected to sharp temperature changes.
- Carbon fibres, glass fibres and/or aramide fibres or other fibres such as polyamide, polyester or polyethylene fibres serve as reinforcing material for the synthetic layer or layers .
- epoxy, BMI and/or polyamide resins are used for composite materials suitable for the use in aircraft and polyamide, polyester and/or polystyrene resins are used for composite materials suitable for the production of boats.
- At least one intermediate layer consisting of an organic compound is disposed between the synthetic layer and the titanium foil.
- this organic compound comprises epoxy resin and/or phenolic and/or polyamide resin systems.
- this compound layer has a mass per unit area of 150 g/m 2 or less and a density of 1.2 to 1.8 g/m 3 .
- the surface of the titanium foil intended to be applied to the fibre reinforced synthetic layer is in advance prepared for adhesive bonding with the synthetic layer.
- the surface of the titanium foil not facing the fibre reinforced synthetic layer is prepared for paint adhesion.
- the preparation of the titanium foil's surfaces can preferably be performed mechanically and/or chemically.
- the mechanical preparation of one or more surfaces of the titanium foil are achieved by roughening the foil's surfaces, for instance by sandblasting.
- the chemical processing can be performed by etching or the like, to achieve a removal and/or an exchange of at least a part of the titanium oxides present in the surface of the titanium foil, wherein the exchange is effected by embedding other metal oxides in the vacancies created by the removal of the titanium oxides.
- This chemical removal and replacement of titanium oxide is for instance performed in the Solgel-treatment developed by the Boeing Company, Seattle, Washington (US) , which is for example disclosed in EP 1 367 146 A2.
- This preparation of one or more surfaces of the titanium foil before the adhesion onto the synthetic layer or before applying a paint layer onto the titanium foil improves the bonding between the distinct layers and the durability of the bonding during the service life of the composite materials according to the invention.
- the above explained composite material is used as a structural material for aircraft or boats.
- this composite material is in particular used for those components of an aircraft or boat, in which the burn- through barrier properties of the material are of particular importance .
- the composite material serves as an electric shielding for electric or electronic components used in the aircraft or boat. Therefore, the composite material according to the invention is in particular preferred for the use of those parts of an aircraft or boat, in which these electronic or electric components are disposed adjacent to the composite material or are embedded in the composite material itself.
- This provides a use of the composite material according to the invention in which all advantages of the composite material according to the invention, i.e. the moisture barrier capacity, mechanical strengthening, protection from chemical attacks or from ultra-violet light, a diffusion of lightning strikes and the electronic shielding of the aircraft, the off-axis strength improvement of the structural components containing the composite material according to the invention, the simplification of a chemical or mechanical stripping of paint and the like are achieved together with a highly favoured application for a light weight construction of the aircraft or boats by using materials having an improved strength and toughness.
