Abstract
|
We propose a new model for characterization of strength properties of fiber-polymer interfaces by means of a single fiber pull-out test. Our model is based on shear-lag analysis using a bilinear bond law (stress–slip relationship) which, in turn, is a simplified representation of the true stress behavior as a function of strain for cold-drawing polymers. According to this law, the fiber-polymer interface is subjected to the following successive processes: (1) linear loading within the elastic region; (2) yielding and subsequent bond strengthening with increasing strain; (3) local debonding and interfacial crack propagation along the interface; (4) post-debonding friction. Both crack propagation and extension of the yielded zone can be stable and unstable, depending on the values of interfacial parameters and the load applied to the free fiber end. The procedure of construction of theoretical force–displacement curves for a pull-out test is described in detail. Theoretical curves exhibit such features as multiple kinks and non-linear regions, whose positions and shape are related to interfacial parameters. By fitting experimental curves with theoretical ones, these parameters can be determined for each separate pull-out specimen. Practical examples are provided for basalt fiber–polypropylene and glass fiber–polypropylene specimens.
