Errors in surface energy estimation of fibres for Liquid Composite Moulding processes and potential origins
Résumé
For a better understanding of the behaviour of new eco-reinforcements, such as recycled carbon fibres, during Liquid Composite Moulding processes (LCM), fibres surface analysis and wetting properties are studied. However, this type of analysis, using the Owens and Wendt relation requires special procedures, specifically for estimation of the contact angle. Based on two tensiometric methods, carbon and basalt fibres with different sizing are characterised in first approach. The main contribution of this study is to evaluate the error in surface energy and its components determination associated to the measurement of an alleged equilibrium contact angle deriving from static or quasi-static data.
