Most composites require a certain amount of pressure to cure, therefore, it is crucial to comprehend the effect of pressure on the curing reaction. Nonetheless, the majority of studies on curing reaction focus on isothermal or non-isothermal DSC measurements at ambient pressure. Using a high-pressure differential calorimetry scanner (Netzsch DSC 204HP), the curing process of a bisphenol A diglycidyl ether system is studied in order to evaluate the influence of curing pressure. The results indicate a competitive relationship between the effect of heating rate and pressure on the reaction rate, with the influence of heating rate being stronger. The reaction follows the autocatalytic model, and the average activation energy E-P and pre-exponential factor A(P) decrease as the pressure increases. The obtained kinetics are used to simulate the process of forming composite laminates. When the thickness of laminates exceeds 18 mm, the maximum difference of the temperature and curing degree between ambient pressure and 2 MPa pressure is 20.65 ? and 0.161, respectively, indicating that the simulation results of thick composites are affected by whether the curing pressure is considered in kinetics.
由于热固性树脂固化过程中固化度、热膨胀和固化收缩之间强耦合,常规仪器无法测量热膨胀系数和固化收缩率.为解决这一问题,基于PVT-α法开发了热膨胀系数与固化收缩率测量装置.通过热流传感器和热电偶确定反应热和固化温度,积分反应热确定固化度;通过位移传感器确定体积变化.将体积变化与固化度变化相结合,解耦热膨胀和固化收缩体积,实现热膨胀系数与固化收缩率的测量.为验证装置可行性,测量了硅橡胶材料的热膨胀系数,误差为4.93%.对热固性树脂(环氧树脂E-51)进行了固化过程热膨胀系数和固化收缩率测量,热膨胀系数随固化度α呈线性变化:CTEcross(α)=8.265 1×10-4(1-α)+7.566 4×10-4α(1/℃),固化收缩率为1.87%.本文开发的装置可以为热固性树脂固化过程热膨胀系数和固化收缩率测量提供手段.
Fiber-reinforced phenolic composite has become an ideal material for solid rocket motor’s (SRM) nozzle, because of its excellent high temperature resistance and ablation resistance. The physical and chemical properties of reinforcing fiber would significantly affect the cure reaction of phenolic (PF) resin, which results in the obvious difference between the cure characteristics of the fiber-reinforced phenolic system and neat resin. To clarify the difference in cure reaction between fiber-reinforced phenolic system and PF resin, meanwhile, to obtain the kinetics of high silica glass fiber/phenolic (GF-HSi/PF) prepreg and carbon fiber/phenolic (CF/PF) prepreg, the dynamic experiments of PF resin, GF-HSi/PF prepreg and CF/PF prepreg are carried out by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Iso-conversional kinetics is proposed, and the activation energy is determined as a function of cure degree. The reaction model f(α) is obtained by introducing the kinetics compensation effect, founding that the f(α) of PF resin is influenced significantly by reinforcing fiber. The kinetics of three materials are determined by the model-fitting method, founding that the kinetic models of PF resin, GF-HSi/PF prepreg and CF/PF prepreg are a one-step autocatalytic model, two-step model from autocatalytic reaction to N-order reaction and three-step model from autocatalytic reaction to N-order reaction respectively.
复合材料扩张段是固体发动机喷管的关键部件,为抵抗高温、高压、烧蚀、高速燃气和力学载荷的综合作用,其结构为超厚壁变曲率的复杂混合复合材料结构.由于扩张段的低导热性、超厚壁特征和固化工艺的不合理,成型过程容易出现剧烈的过热峰.为减小固化变形,提高扩张段成型质量,必须抑制固化过热,提高固化均匀性.本文首先采用高压差示扫描量热仪表征2 MPa压力下高硅氧玻璃纤维/酚醛和碳纤维/酚醛预浸料的动力学.然后考虑成型过程多场耦合特点及成型模具和固化工艺的影响,构建固化过程耦合模型,分析扩张段固化过热和非均匀固化现象.最后,提出在剧烈固化前插入降温段的方法优化固化工艺,抑制固化过热.结果表明,优化工艺可以有效抑制扩张段过热现象,优化后最大过热峰由54.2℃下降为23.5℃,最大固化度差值由0.6下降为0.34,下降幅度分别为56.64%和43.33%.

The case for modern solid rocket motor (SRM) is a complex compose structure with fiber reinforced resin matrix composite, insulation layer and metal connections, the case forming process is a multi-physical–chemical process which involving heat transfer, chemical reaction and structure deformation. During the cure process, temperature determines whether the case cure completely and the uniformity of temperature field is an important factor in causing residual thermal stress and shrinkage stress, so temperature field is the key to the mutual coupling effect of each physical and chemical process, and the basis to analyze the cure process of the case. During the cure process of case, fluctuation of cure temperature, cure time or heat transfer of hot air in the furnace may occur, which make the actual forming process of case deviate from the ideal cure process. In order to investigate the sensitive degree of thermal cycle, convective heat transfer coefficient and thermal properties to cure uniformity during cure process of composite case, the influence rule of the three factors on uniformity of temperature and cure degree fields were analyzed by numerical simulation. A thermal-chemical model was built for a simplified composite SRM case firstly, and the model was verified. Then, the influence degree of the three factors on cure uniformity of composite case was analyzed and quantized by the Morris global sensitivity analysis method. The results show that he sensitivity order of the uniformity of temperature field for the four parameters is: thermal diffusion coefficient > heat transfer coefficient > duration time > cure temperature. Besides, he temperature and duration time of the fourth dwell stage have less effect on the cure uniformity of composite case than that of heat transfer coefficient. Therefore, it is a challenge to design a thermal cycle that can not only guarantee the vulcanization of EPDM insulation layer, but also improve the cure uniformity.
