Degradation mechanisms under hydro-thermo-mechanical loads of natural fibers-reinforced biocomposites : application to the development of lightweight…
2018
With the current environmental concerns, research turns to alternative solutions to synthetic fibres. Vegetal fibers appears as good candidates, with good mechanical properties. However, their low durability is a major issue, especially when the composites are exposed to hydro(hygro)thermal loadings.The purpore of this thesis is to analyse and understand the degradation mechanisms when hydro-thermo-mechanical loadings are applied, in order to implement a predictive modelisation of the composite durability.The manufacturing process wasstudied and optimised to produce reproducible and strong composites. Two materials were produced. Their only difference is their volumetric fiber contents (37.…
Contribution to the development of natural fibers' use in structural composites. Study of a Flax / Epoxy composite’s behavior when exposed to hygroth…
2018
In recent years there is renewed interest for bio-sourced composites, including those based on flax fibers, and especially in the field of transport, mobility and leisure. In fact, the lower energy cost and environmental impact of flax fiber give it an advantage over glass fiber, while competing with its specific mechanical properties. However, flax fibers based composites long-term behavior remains poorly known in damp environments and constitutes an obstacle to a wider use. This work aims to provide adapted parameters to produce a high-grade flax/epoxy composite and to contribute to improve the durability knowledge of these materials. First, the influence of many processing parameters [(i…
Multifunctional biosourced materials : durability of unidirectional recycled matrix composites reinforced with flax fibers
2022
Now more than ever, many engineering sectors are turning to natural fiber composites because of the need for more environmentally friendly solutions. One of the main challenges in developing the use of biocomposites in outdoor applications is the lack of knowledge about their long-term durability. The main objective of this work is to provide a better understanding of the mechanisms involved in photooxidative aging of unidirectional composites made of a virgin or recycled polypropylene matrix, reinforced with long flax fibers. In addition, this work aims to study the potential use of a recycled matrix by comparing the evolution of its behavior to photooxidative aging with a virgin matrix. T…
Influence Des Conditions De Fabrication Sur Les Propriétés Mécaniques Et Physico-Chimiques D'un Composite Lin/Époxy Unidirectionnel
2017
This study focused on the development of a manufacturing process of laminated composites made from DGEBA epoxy matrix and flax fibers. The aim is to produce a material with good and low dispersed mechanical properties. Thermocompression is the chosen manufacturing method because it enables the production of composite with high fiber content. We used separated matrix and reinforcement, and not a prepreg, to fully control each component of our composites. Several curing cycle parameters have been tested in order to optimize mechanical properties and processing time. A multi-scale analyze has been carried on the produced composites in order to quantify the range of properties’ modifications. T…
