In the present work, the effect of plasma treatment of aluminum on the fracture toughness of CFRP/aluminum composites was investigated. The surface of the aluminum was treated by a DC plasma. The plasma treatment was carried out at volume ratio of acetylene gas to nitrogen gas of 5:5 and the treatment time used was 30 sec. Cracked lap shear specimens of aluminum/CFRP composites were made using secondary bonding procedure. Fracture toughness of aluminum/CFRP composites was determined using the work factor approach. Then, the fracture toughness of plasma-treated aluminum/CFRP composites was compared with that of untreated aluminum/CFRP composites. The results showed that the fracture toughness of plasma-treated aluminum/CFRP composites was about 50 % higher than that of untreated aluminum/CFRP composites.

It is well-known that the bond strength between CFRP(Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic) and aluminum is significantly affected by the surface treatment of the CFRP and the aluminum. This study investigates the surface treatment of CFRP to improve the T-peel strength of CFRP/aluminum composites. The surface of %CFRP([0^0]_{14})$ was treated by the ion assisted reaction method under oxygen environment. T-peel strength tests were performed based on the procedure of ASTM D1876-95. The T-peel strength of surface-treated CFRP/aluminum composites was compared with that of untreated CFRP/aluminum composites. The results showed that the T-peel strength of surface-treated CFRP/aluminum composites was about 5.5 times higher than that of untreated CFRP/aluminum composites. SEM examination showed that the improvement of T-peel strength was attributed to the uniform spread and fracture of epoxy adhesive.

In this study, the effect of surface treatment of CFRP and aluminum on the fracture toughness of CFRP/aluminum composites was investigated. CFRP was surface-treated by Ar$^{+}$ ion beam under oxygen environment, and the aluminum was surface-treated by DC plasma. CFRP was adhesively bonded to aluminum using the secondary bonding procedure. Cracked lap shear specimens were used to determine fracture toughness. Three cases of cracked lap shear specimens were made depending on the surface treatment. The values of fracture toughness of three cases were compared to each other It was found that the fracture toughness of ion beam-treated CFRP/aluminum composites was almost 72 % higher than that of unrented CFRP/aluminum composites. The fracture toughness of CFRP/plasma-treated aluminum composites was 50 % higher than that of untreated CFRP/aluminum composites.s.

This paper documents the effect of surface treatment of aluminum on the bonding strength of aluminum/CFRP composites. The surface of aluminum panel was treated by DC plasma. The optimal treatment condition of the aluminum was determined by measuring the contact angle and T-peel strength as functions of mixture ratio of acetylene gas to nitrogen gas. The mixture ratios used were 1:9, 3:7, 5:5, 7:3, and 9:1 Lap shear tests and T-peel tests were performed using surface-treated alumiunm/CFRP composites and regular alumiunm/CFRP composites. The results showed that the contact angle was minimized and the T-peel strength was maximized iota the mixture ratio of 5:5. The results also showed that the shear strength of surface-treated alumiunm/CFRP composites was 34% greater than that of regular alumiunm/CFRP composites. The T-peel strength of surface-treated alumiunm/CFRP composites was also 5 times greater than that of regular alumiunm/CFRP composites.

This work investigated fatigue characteristics of aluminum repaired by CFRP composites. Three specimens, cracked aluminum, cracked aluminum patched by CFRP, and plasma-treated aluminum patched by CFRP were used for the fatigue tests. The results showed that the fatigue crack growth behavior of cracked aluminum was improved by repairing the cracked area with composite patch. Specifically, the specimen repaired by composite patch showed about three times more fatigue life than the cracked aluminum. The plasma-treated aluminum repaired by composite patch showed about five times more fatigue life than the cracked aluminum.

This study investigates the effect of curing method on the bonding strength of aluminum/CFRP composites. The surface of aluminum panel was treated by DC plasma. Lap shear tests and T-peel tests were performed based on the procedure of ASTM 906-94a and ASTMD1876-95, respectively. Test samples were fabricated by using the co-curing method and the secondary curing method. The results showed that the shear strength of test samples made by the co-curing method was 2.5 times greater than that of test samples made by the secondary curing method. The T-peel strength of the co-curing method case was almost 2 times greater than that of the secondary curing method case.

본 논문에서는 탄소섬유강화플라스틱 면재와 알루미늄 샌드위치 심재를 가지는 복합재 샌드위치의 제조와 3절점 굽힘 실험에 대해 연구하였다. 시편은 3가지 하니컴 종류(3.18 mm, 4.76 mm, 6.35 mm의 셀 크기)와 3가지 곡률 반지름(평판, r = 1.6 m, r = 1.3 m)을 가지도록 제작하였다. 샌드위치 곡률의 기준은 W-방향을 기준으로 제작 하였다. CFRP $2{\times}2$ 트윌의 인장에서 기계적 물성치(탄성계수, 강도, 푸아송 비)를 측정하여 그 값들을 다른 CFRP 섬유 적층판의 값과 비교하였다. 실험결과 평판 샌드위치 패널의 3절점 굽힘 실험에서 심재의 전단강도는 공개된 데이터에 비해 11-30% 낮게 나왔다. 제한된 시편 크기에서 1.3미터 곡률을 가지는 패널은 평판 패널에 비해 심재의 극한 전단강도가 0.8-3.8% 감소한 것으로 나타났다.

This study investigates the effect of surface treatment on the shear strength between aluminum panel and composite plate. The aluminum panel was surface-treated by DC Plasma and the composite Plate was surface-treated by ion beam. Lap shear test and T-peel test were performed to determine the shear strength and T-peel strength. Results showed that the shear strength of surface-treated case was 2.5 times higher than that of untreated case. The T-peel strength of treated case was more than 5 times higher than that of untreated case. SEM examination showed that the strength increase of surface-treated case was due to the more spread of epoxy to the panel.

본 논문은 차량에 사용되는 파티션 패널을 기존의 알루미늄 소재에서 Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastics(CFRP)로 소재를 변경하여 경량화 가능성을 확인하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 복합재 제작에는 3가지 방법의 직조 방법(평직, 능직, 주자직)이 사용되었고, 복합재 시편을 제작하고 시험을 수행하여 물성을 도출하였다. 이를 통해 비틀림 조건에 대한 복합재 파티션 패널 해석 모델을 구성하고, Tsai-Hill 파손 기준에 따라 구조적 안정성과 시스템 강성을 평가하였다. 섬유 배향 각도와 적층 순서에 대한 설계변수를 통해, 진화론적 알고리즘을 수행하였고, 그 결과로 최적의 복합재 파티션 패널을 설계하였다. 또한, 강도 및 비강성에 대한 구조해석 결과를 기존의 알루미늄 파티션 패널과 복합재 파티션 패널를 비교하여, 경량화 가능성을 검증하였다.
