Composite Fabricating Basics

By resolute definition, a fabricated COMPOSITE material is a manufactured collection of two or more ingredients or products intentionally combined to form a new homogenous material that is defined by its performance that should uniquely greater than the sum of its individual parts. This method is also defined as SYNERGISTIC COMPOSITION.

EQUALS
 
STRUCTURAL STRENGTH COMPOSITE LAMINATE

 
With respect to the raw materials selection( fabric and resin), the fabricating process and the intended composite properties,  these 3 aspects must be carefully considered and i
n the engineering phase of the composite.
The following are some of the basic steps and guidelines for consideration.
 
STEP ONE: CHOOSE THE PROPER FABRIC
TYPES OF FABRIC WEAVE STYLE AND SURFACE FINISHING
FOR RESIN TYPE COMPATIBILITY

 
PLAIN WEAVE
Is a very simple weave pattern and the most common style. The warp and fill yarns are interlaced over and under each other in alternating fashion. Plain weave provides good stability, porosity and the least yarn slippage for a given yarn count.

 
8 HARNESS SATIN WEAVE
The eight-harness satin is similar to the four-harness satin except that one filling yarn floats over seven warp yarns and under one.
This is a very pliable weave and is used for forming over curved surfaces.

 
4 HARNESS SATIN WEAVE
The four-harness satin weave is more pliable than the plain weave and is easier to conform to curved surfaces typical in reinforced plastics. In this weave pattern there is a three by one interfacing where a filling yarn floats over three warp yarns and under one.

 
2×2 TWILL WEAVE
Twill weave is more pliable than the plain weave and has better drivability while maintaining more fabric stability than a four or eight harness satin weave. The weave pattern is characterized by a diagonal rib created by one warp yarn floating over at least two filling yarns.

Satin Weave Style For Contoured Parts Fabricating
 

These styles of fabrics are one of the easiest fabrics to use and it is ideal for laying up cowls, fuselages, ducts and other contoured surfaces with minimal distortions. The fabric is more pliable and can comply with complex contours and spherical shapes. Because of its tight weave style, satin weaves are typically used as the surface ply for heavier and courser weaves. This technique helps reduce fabric print through and requires less gel coat to create a smoother surface.

Step Two: Choose the best epoxy resin system for the job
 
The principal role of the resin is to bind the fabric into a homogenous rigid substrate
called a composite laminate or FRP- FIBER REINFORCED PLASTIC.
 
The epoxy resin used in fabricating a laminant will dictate how the
FRP will perform when load or pressure is implied on the part.
To choose the proper resin system consider the following factors
that is crucial to a laminate’s performance.
 
SIZE AND CONFIGURATION OF THE PART
(NUMBER OF PLIES  AND CONTOURED, FLAT OR PROFILED)
CONSOLIDATING FORCE
(FREE STANDING DRY OR HAND LAY-UP, VACUUM BAG OR PLATEN PRESS CURING)
CURING CAPABILITIES
(HEAT CURED OR ROOM TEMPERATURE CURED)
LOAD PARAMETERS

(SHEARING FORCE, TORSIONAL AND DIRECTIONAL LOAD, BEAM STRENGTH)
ENVIRONMENTAL EXPOSURE
(OPERATING TEMPERATURE, AMBIENT CONDITIONS, HUMIDITY, CHEMICAL EXPOSURE, CYCLIC FORCE LOADING)

MATERIAL AND PRODUCTION COST
(BUYING IN BULK WILL ALWAYS PROVIDE THE BEST OVERALL COSTS AS WELL AS DOING IT RIGHT THE FIRST TIME)
 
These factors will dictate the design and the composition of the part and must be carefully considered during the design and engineering phase
of the fabrication.

Step Three: Proper Lay-Up Technique
Pre-lay-up notes

Lay out the fabric and precut to size and set aside

Avoid distorting the weave pattern as much as possible

For fiberglass molding, insure the mold is clean and adequate mold release is used 

View our video presentation above “MAX EPOXY RESIN MIXING TECHNIQUE”  

Mix the resin only when all needed materials and implements needed are ready and within reach
Mix the proper amount of resin needed and be accurate proportioning the resin and curing agent. Adding more curing agent than the recommended mix ratio will not promote a faster cure.  
Over saturation or starving the fiberglass or any composite
fabric will yield poor mechanical performance.

COMPUTING FABRIC TO RESIN RATIO BY WEIGHT
AN ACCURATE DIGITAL SCALE IS HIGHLY RECOMENDED RATHER THAN GOING BY FABRIC
DATA AND VOLUMETRIC RESIN MEASURING AND PROPORTIONING.
CLICK ON THE SLIDE SHOW TO ACTIVATE PAUSE AND PLAY CONTROLS
 
WEIGH ALL FABRICS TO BE USED TO DETERMINE FABRIC TO RESIN RATIO
A good rule of thumb is to maintain a minimum of 30 to 35% resin content by weight, this is the optimum ratio used in high performance
prepreg (or pre-impregnated fabrics) typically used in aerospace and high performance structural application.

For general hand lay-ups, calculate using 60% fabric weight to 40% resin weight as a safe factor.
This will insure that the fabricated laminate will be below 40% resin content depending on the waste factor accrued during fabrication.
 
Place the entire precut fiberglass to be used on a scale to determine the weight ratio between the resin and fabric composition.
 
Typical fabric weights regardless of weave pattern
1 yard of 8 OSY fabrics at 38 inches wide weighs 224 grams
1 yard of 10 OSY fabrics at 38 inches wide weighs 280 grams
 
Ounces per square yard or OSY is also know as aerial weight which is the most common unit of measurement for composite fabrics.
 
If a scale is available, measuring by weight will insure accurate composite fabrication and repeatability, rather than using OSY data.
 
To determine how much resin is needed to adequately impregnate the fiberglass, use the following equation:
(Total Weight of Fabric divided by 60%)X( 40%)= weight of mixed resin needed
 
fw=fabric weight
rc=target resin content
rn=resin needed
(fw/60%)x(40%)=rn
 
FOR EXAMPLE
1 SQUARE YARD OF 8-OSY FIBERGLASS FABRICS WEIGHS 224 GRAMS
 
(224 grams of dry fiberglass / 60%) X 40% = 149.33 grams of resin needed
 
So for every square yard of 8-ounce fabric,
It will need 149.33 fluid ounces of mixed resin.
 
To determine how much resin is needed to adequately impregnate the fiberglass, use the following equation:
(Total Weight of Fabric divided by 60%)X( 40%)= weight of mixed resin needed 
 OR
 
fw  = fabric weight
rc = target resin content
rn= resin needed
 
MASTER EQUATION 
(fw/60%)x(40%)= rn
 
FOR EXAMPLE
1 SQUARE YARD OF 8-OSY FIBERGLASS FABRIC WEIGHS 224 GRAMS
 
(224 grams of dry fiberglass / 60%) X 40% = 149.33 grams of resin needed
 
 So for every square yard of 8-ounce fabric,
It will need 149.33 grams of mixed resin.
 
Computing for resin and curing agent requirements based on
149.33 grams of resin needed
 
MIX RATIO OF RESIN SYSTEM IS 2:1 OR
50PHR (per hundred resin)
 
2 = 66.67% (2/3)
+
1= 33.33%(1/3)
=
(2+1)=3 or (66.67%+33.33%)=100% or (2/3+1/3)= 3/3
 
149.33 x 66.67%= 99.56 grams of Part A RESIN
149.33 x 33.33%= 49.77 grams of Part B Curing Agent
 
99.56 + 49.77 = 149.33 A/B MIXTURE
 
Common Factors Of 100% Solids (Zero volatiles and unfilled epoxy resin)
1 gallon of resin = 4239 grams (1.12 g/cc)
1 gallon = 128 fluid ounces
1 gallon of resin = 231 cubic inches
1 fluid ounce of resin = 33.17 grams

BASIC FIBERGLASS FLAT PANEL LAY UP TECHNIQUE
 ADOBE FLASH PLAYER MUST BE INSTALLED IN YOUR COMPUTER TO VIEW THE FOLLOWING SLIDE SHOWS AND VIDEOS.

Apply the mixed resin unto the surface and
then lay the fabric and allow the resin to saturate the fabric
NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND
 
 This is one of the most common processing error that yields sub-standard laminates.
By laying the fiberglass unto a film of resin, less air bubbles are entrapped during the wetting-out stage.
 
Air is pushed up and outwards instead of forcing the resin through the fabric which will entrap air bubbles. This technique will displace air unhindered and uniformly disperse through out the fiberglass with minimal mechanical agitation or spreading.

Given enough time and the proper selection of the fabric’s surface treatment (fabric to resin compatibility), a dry fabric will seek a state equilibrium and distribute
the applied resin and naturally release air bubbles entrapped within the laminant.
It is then very important that the proper viscosity, working time and surface treatment of the fabric must considered.
 
 
 
Given enough time and the proper selection of the fabric’s surface treatment (fabric to resin compatibility), 
a dry fabric will seek a state of equilibrium and distribute the applied resin and naturally release air bubbles entrapped within the laminant.
It is then very important that the proper viscosity, working time and surface treatment of the fabric must considered.
There are also fabricating techniques that can be employed to yield high performance laminate.
Depending on the size of the part, processes such as high pressure pressing, vacuum bagging and vacuum assisted resin transfer molding are superior methods over hand dry lay-up. 
 
Air voids or porosity within the laminate is typically where failure propagates when load is applied
(fracturing, compression failure, tearing, torque, tensile strength, creep).
  Step Four: Proper Curing
 
Allow the lay-up to cure for 24 hours before handling.
Optimum cured properties can take up to 7 days depending on the ambient cure condition. 
The ideal temperature cure condition of most room temperature epoxy resin is 22 to 27 degrees Celsius at 20% relative humidity.
Higher ambient curing temperatures will promote faster polymerization and development of cured mechanical properties.
Improving mechanical performance via post heat cure
A short heat post cure will further improve the mechanical performance of most epoxy resins. Allow the applied resin system to cure at room temperature until for 18 to 24 hours and if possible, expose heat cure it in an oven  or other source of radiant heat (220°F to 250°F) for45 minute to an hour. You can also expose it to direct sunlight but place a dark colored cover, such as a tarp or cardboard to protect it from ultraviolet exposure.
In general room temperature cured epoxy resin has a maximum operating temperature of 250°F and 160°F or lower
if it is under stress or load. 
A short heat post cure will insure that the mixed epoxy system is fully cured,
especially for room temperature cured system that can take up to 7 days to 100% cure
 
Some darkening or yellowing of the epoxy resin may occur if over exposed to high temperature (>250°F).
This color darkening is mostly caused by thermal oxidation process in which FREE RADICAL compounds are created via thermal energy (heat).
 
AMINE BLUSH
The affinity of an amine compound (curing agent) to moisture and
carbon dioxide creates a carbonate compound and forms what is called amine blush.
Amine blush is a wax-like layer that forms as most epoxies cure.
  If the epoxy system is cured in extreme humidity (>70%).
It will be seen as a white and waxy layer that must be removed by 
physical sanding of the surface followed by an acetone wipe.
 
Although we have formulated the MAX CLR, MAX BOND and MAX GPE product line to be resistant to amine-blush,
it is recommended not to mix any resin systems in high humidity conditions, greater than 70%.
Always make sure that the substrate or material the epoxy resin system is being applied to
 is as dry as possible to insure the best cured performance..
 
LATENT CURING SYSTEMS
Latent epoxy resins are systems that are mixed together at room temperature and will begin polymerization but it will not achieve full cure unless it is exposed to a heat cure cycle.
In general, these are high performance systems that demonstrate exceptional performance under extreme conditions such as high mechanical performance under heat and cryogenics temperatures,
chemical resistance or any environment that epoxy room temperature system perform marginally or poorly.
  Upon the mixing of the resin and curing agent polymerization will begin and will only achieve partial cure.
Some resins may appear cured or dry to the touch,  this state is called ’B-Stage Cure’ ,but upon application of force will either
 be gummy or brittle almost glass-like and  will dissolve in most solvents.
The semi-cured resin must be exposed to an elevated temperature for it to continue polymerization and achieve full cure. 
 
HEAT ACTIVATED CURING SYSTEMS
 This type of epoxy system will not polymerized unless it is exposed to the activation temperature of the curing agent which can be as low as 200F and as high as 400F.
In most instances these epoxy system can be stored at room temperature and remain liquid for up to six months and longer

 Important Issues concerning deep vacuum pumps and HVAC & Refrigeration Service: 
Moisture: Moisture within sealed refrigeration systems cause CFC, HCFC & HFC refrigerants to break down, forming hydrochloric and hydrofluoric acids. These acids will attack the hermetic motor winding insulation and ultimately result in compressor failure.   Several variations of acid test kits are available to determine the presence of acid.  Pulling a deep vacuum (500 microns or less) is the only method which assures you’ve “boiled” off and removed all moisture from a sealed system.  And a system which will hold a deep vacuum, is also leak-free.
Measuring Deep Vacuum: Standard manifold gauge sets, with compound low side gauge, are inadequate in determining deep vacuum.  They are just simply not accurate enough.  The only sure method of determining you’ve properly dehydrated a system is with the use of a micron gauge.  We currently offer several micron vacuum guages. Please search our eBay store.   
Oil: It’s the specially formulated, low vapor pressure vacuum pump oil that absorbs the moisture (water vapor) during the evacuation process, and this oil has a finite moisture capacity.   This is why ALL vacuum pump manufacturers’ instructions will state that it’s important to change your pumps oil AFTER EVERY USE.   You should be able to take your used vacuum pump oil to a local PepBoys, Jiffy Lube, etc. for recycling. Furthermore, the hygroscopic nature of polyolester (POE) refrigeration oils contained in systems utilizing HFC refrigerants (R410A – aka Carrier’s PuronTM), R404A, R134A, may require multiple vacuum pump oil changes to effectively dehydrate, especially if the system has been open to atmosphere for more than a brief moment. 
If you need vacuum pump oil, we ship only in full cases as follows:
24 each pints (16oz)    24lbs shipping
12 each quarts (32oz) 24lbs shipping
6 each gallons (128oz) 48lbs shipping

The diode will instantly start burning black plastic at a close distance. The burn mark shown on the left took about 5 seconds and the
burn mark on the right took about 10 seconds and it burned completely through the plastic. This testing was done using 2 D cells and
a 1 Ohm 5 watt wire wound resistor. However, for peak performance a 2.2 volt power supply capable of supplying over 1 Amp would be
ideal.

808nm is in the far infrared band in the light spectrum. 808nm is not a very visible wavelength so you will only see a slight redish glow. If you are seeking a highly visible red or green laser then this is not the one for you.

If you would like to view a video experiment conducted by one of the customers please visit the below youtube link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ox3kWfdQjLc WE ONLY SELL THE DIODE. THE PICTURES ILLUSTRATE AN EXPERIMENT ONLY.DISCLAIMER: Laser Diodes can be potential dangerous. They can damage your eyes in an instant, so never shine the laser in your eyes. You should use eye protection. You use this product at your own risk and the seller nor ebay will be held liable for any damages incurred.So you have purchased your Laser Diode and now want to actually use it. There are some rules that need to be adhered to in order to protect the diodes from damage. Some things that are not forgiving are; electrostatic damage, passing too much current through the diode or overheating. Any of these will terminally damage the diode or plainly put will f— it.    If appropriate precautions are taken, damage can be prevented. Use an antistatic wrist band and mat. When it comes to supplying current to the diode, observe the polarity of the diode, this is the positive and negative terminals. Our housed diodes have two fly leads, one red and one black. The red is positive and the black is negative. In the case of the bare diodes you will notice one of the pins are connected to the case, this is the positive.Start with current well below the diodes maximum.(About 2 amps in this case). The best way to know this, is to measure the current through the diode using an ampmeter/multimeter in series with the diode.  If you are supplying your diode from a bench top type power supply with current limiting then it is a simple case of turning down the current limit before supplying the diode. If your power supply does not have the current limiting feature then  you will want to use a current limiting resistor and start the voltage at zero and bring the voltage up slowly whilst monitoring the current and heat. If you are using batteries then your simplest and cheapest method to limit current is to use a resistor. If you follow our experiment all should be smooth sailing. Your battery should be able to supply the maximum current, this means using decent cells. We have used Alkaline D cells. No, AAA or AA cells wont cut it, you may get away with C cells. If you are using LiPos, SLA, NiCd, NiMH or any other chemistries the same rules apply. Start by using a higher value current limiting resistor and measure the current through the diode. Then reduce the resistance by replacing the resistor with a slightly lower value. Run the diode again and you will see an increase in current. Then keep reducing the resistance thus increasing the current, remember to not exceed the maximum current and you will find that a bare diode will heat quickly so be sure to run it only for short periods of time. A heatsink or our housed diodes will allow you to run for longer or even indefinitely.Another way to regulate the current is to use a proper driver in which case you would need to follow its instructions. The fundamental will remain the same ie start low and slowly increase the power watching the current and feeling the temperature.Another aspect is the light emitted from the diode. It does not emit parallel, it actually spreads out. Lenses are used to bring the light to a focal point as is used in our housed diodes. If you are trying to burn, a dark or black surface is most effective. If you do not have a lens then the diode will have to be close to your target.  We hope that this helps.

High Power fiber coupled IR Laser Diode!

This is a great laser diode made by SDL. It is doing
about 1 Watt of ~835nm laser radiation out of the fiber, at a current of 1.5 to
2 amps. It can do even more at a larger current, with some reduction in the
diode’s overall working lifetime.

Updated information:

The diode is SDL model 2364-L2. Take a look at the datasheet of
this diode by following this link.
Here are a few key specifications:

Output power: 1 Watt
Center wavelength: 830nm +/- 15nm
Threshold current: 0.3A (nominal)
Operating current: 2.0A (max)
Fiber core diameter: 60 um
Fiber cladding diameter: 125 um
Fiber sheath diameter: 900 um
Fiber NA: 0.22

This is more than enough laser power for setting paper
on fire, woodburning, etc. It is also more than enough for permanently
blinding you – so use only with knowledge of laser safety. Most of
all, USE PROPER LASER PROTECTION EYEWEAR! The seller or eBay
will not be held responsible for any damages to body or property caused by the
use of this item.

The diode is tested and works great. ESD precautions
were strictly followed when handling this diode. You should use a “clean” power
source to power this diode – voltages spikes would damage it. Two “D” size
batteries with a current limiting resistor would do fine.

I have written an instruction sheet to help people
safely operate this diode. It is not meant to be a complete guide to using
laser diodes, but it should help you get started. Here is the link to
the Instruction Sheet.

This item is guaranteed non-DOA!
