Basic mechanical properties of balloon-type TEEK-L polyimide-foam and TEEK-L filled aramid-honeycomb core materials for sandwich structures
2005
The objectives of this study are to investigate the basic mechanical properties of TEEK-L polyimide-foam of a balloon type and TEEK-L filled aramid-honeycomb core-materials for sandwich structures and to compare their mechanical properties with those of AIREX R82 and ROHACELL WF foam core-materials. Compression, tension, and plate-shear tests provided their stress–strain relationships, elastic modulus, and strength. The test results are compared and discussed. The major results obtained are: (1) Filling the aramid honeycomb cells with TEEK-L can improve the basic mechanical properties of an aramid-honeycomb core-material, in particular making them higher than the values expected from the principle of superposition for compression tests and equal to the values expected from superposition for plate-shear tests. (2) The basic mechanical properties of the TEEK-L filled aramid honeycomb are superior to those of AIREX R82 110 and equivalent to those of ROHACELL WF 110, where the three materials have equal densi...
