Abstract

Nondestructive damage sensitivity on single-basalt fiber/epoxy composites was evaluated by micromechanical technique and acoustic emission (AE). Piezoelectric lead-zirconate-titanate (PZT), polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) and poly(vinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene) (P(VDF-TrFE)) copolymer were used as AE sensor, respectively. In single-fiber composite, the damage sensing with different sensor types were compared to each other. Piezoelectric PVDF polymer sensor was embedded in and attached on the composite, whereas PZT sensor was only attached on the surface of specimen. In case of embedded polymer sensors, responding sensitivity was higher than that of the attached case. It can be due to full constraint inside specimen to transfer elastic wave coming from micro-deformation. For both the attached and the embedded cases, the sensitivity of P(VDF-TrFE) sensor was almost same as that of conventional PVDF sensor.

Micromechanical 시험법과 음향방출을 이용하여 단일 basalt 섬유 강화 에폭시 복합재료의 비파괴 손상감지능을 평가하였다. 음향방출 센서로는 PZT 및 고분자 PVDF와 P(VDF-TrFE)를 사용하였고 단섬유 강화 시험법에서 각 센서 종류에 따른 손상감지능을 상호 비교하였다. 고분자 센서는 시편 표면에 부착시키거나 내부에 함침시켜 사용하였지만 PZT 센서는 표면에 부착하여 사용하였다. 고분자 센서를 시편 표면에 부착시킨 경우와 함침시킨 경우 감지능은 비슷하였지만 부착의 경우 debonding 신호가 많아 함침 시키는 방법이 손상감지에 더 효과적이었다. 손상 감지능은 PZT센서가 가장 높았고, 함침 및 부착 모두에서 PVDF와 P(VDF-TrFE) 센서의 손상감지능은 거의 비슷하였다.
