Definitions

- the field of the invention is that of composite materials and their manufacturing processes.
- thermosetting resins In the field of high-performance materials, composites have taken a prominent place, due to their performance and the weight gains they allow.
- the best known high-performance composites to date are obtained from thermosetting resins, the use of which is limited to low to medium series applications, mainly in aeronautics, motor sports, and in the best cases, presenting manufacturing times of about fifteen minutes, for example, during the manufacture of skis.
- the cost of these materials, and / or the manufacturing time make them difficult to compatible with mass use.
- the use of thermosetting resins often involves the presence of solvents and monomers. Finally, these composites are difficult to recycle.
- thermoplastic matrix composites An answer, compared to the manufacturing times, is given by thermoplastic matrix composites.
- Thermoplastic polymers are generally known for their high viscosity, which constitutes a brake with regard to the impregnation of reinforcement materials, generally composed of very dense multifilament beams. It results from the use of thermoplastic matrices available on the market, a difficulty of impregnation requiring either prolonged impregnation times or significant application pressures. In most cases, the composite materials obtained from these matrices may have microvoids and non-impregnated areas. These microvids cause mechanical properties drop, premature aging of the material and delamination problems when the material consists of several layers of reinforcements. This phenomenon of loss of mechanical properties is also accentuated when the cycle times for the manufacture of composite articles decrease.

- the spacing of the lips of the die is about 300 ⁇ m for a width of 30 cm with a call speed of 3.2 m / min on rolls regulated at 115 ° C: the films obtained have a thickness that varies between 160 and 180 ⁇ m (coils 280 mm wide).
- the polymer films are cut into sheets of 150x150 mm or 200x300 mm, from the previously obtained coils. It is the same for reinforcement fabrics.
- Composite parts are produced using a Schwabenthan (Polystat 300A) temperature-controlled double-plate hydraulic press: hot plates (heating resistors) and cooled trays (circulation). of water).
- a metal mold with a print size of 150 mm x 150 mm or 200x300 mm is used.
- a metal frame is introduced into the mold in which is placed a preform consisting of an alternating stack comprising 6 sheets of glass cloth and between each is a sheet of polymer, or uniformly distributed powder, the two outer layers being sheets of glass cloth.
- the temperature of the platens of the press is previously mounted either at 250 0 C for PA 6 or 290 0 C for PA 6.6 before the introduction of the preform. At this temperature, the pressure is applied between 1 and 50 bar and maintained at this value; degassing is done quickly. The assembly is maintained at the same temperature and pressure, without degassing. Again, it is then carried out a series of degassing, then a maintenance always at the same temperature and pressure. The mold is then transferred to the cooled platen device and maintained at a pressure of between 1 and 50 bar.
- the composite parts thus obtained have a dimension of 150 ⁇ 150 mm or 200 ⁇ 300 mm and a thickness of about 2 mm.
- a cycle of 5 minutes under an average pressure of 15 to 50 bar was carried out: 1 min. under 15 bar, then 1 min at 50 bar, then 2 min at 50 bar). This time corresponds to the total duration of the cycle between the temperature setting of the mold and the cooling under pressure (1 min.).
- the sheets 150x150 mm or 200x300 mm are cut to obtain samples of dimensions 150x20x2 mm.
- a first series of samples are characterized just after manufacture (sample placed in a sealed envelope, in order to keep them in a dry state RHO).
- a conditioning treatment can also be carried out according to the ISO1110 standard "plastic / polyamide / accelerated packaging of test pieces": state said RH50.
- the equilibrium water content is obtained by conditioning the composite parts with a cycle of 10 days, at 70 ° C. under a residual humidity RH of 62%.
- the 3-point bending tests at room temperature are carried out on parallepipedic specimens (150x20x2 mm), according to ISO standard No. 14125, on a ZWICK 1478 machine: 64 mm center distance, 5 mm / min crosshead speed. Young's elastic modulus E (GPa) and maximum stress ⁇ max (MPa) values are measured and calculated. Direct tensile tests at room temperature are carried out on parallepipedic specimens (250x25x2mm), according to ASTM D3039 / D3039M on a ZWICK 1478 machine: traverse speed of 1 to 5 mm / min. The elastic modulus values of Young E (GPa) and peak stress ⁇ max (MPa) are measured and calculated.
- the tensile failure mode is much more abrupt than in the case of polyamides without novolac resin.
- Example 3 The samples prepared according to Example 3 were subjected to hygrothermal aging.
- a first type of aging was carried out by immersion in water at 65 ° C. for 65 days (see “AMOCO” test).
- test pieces After aging, the test pieces are reconditioned: removal of the adsorbed water by treatment of the test pieces at 90 ° C. under vacuum for 24 h, then stabilization at RH 50 by conditioning with a cycle of 10 days, at 70 ° C. under a residual humidity RH of 62%.
- the 3-point bending tests at room temperature are carried out on parallepipedic specimens (150x20x2 mm), according to ISO standard No. 14125, on a ZWICK 1478 machine: 64 mm center distance, 5 mm / min crosshead speed. Young's elastic modulus E (GPa) and maximum stress ⁇ max (MPa) values are measured and calculated.
- a second type of aging was carried out by immersion in water at 80 ° C. for 8 days (accelerated test).
- test pieces were either tested as such or reconditioned by removal of the adsorbed water: treatment at 80 ° C. under vacuum for 24 hours (RHO).
- the 3-point bending tests at room temperature are carried out on parallepipedic specimens (150x20x2 mm), according to ISO standard No. 14125, on a ZWICK 1478 machine: 64 mm center distance, 5 mm / min crosshead speed. Young's elastic modulus E (GPa) and maximum stress ⁇ max (MPa) values are measured and calculated.
