    Notes: Positron and Positronium chemistry has been pursued and advanced by many scientists and engineers in both fundamental understanding of Positronium atom and its applications to chemical and polymeric systems during the last decade. This paper presents our recent results from collaborative investigations of positron annihilation in polymeric membranes. Future perspectives of applying Positronium chemistry to membrane science and technology and other related disciplines of nanotechnology, chemical engineering, materials science, energy research, molecules with positrons, biological and medical sciences appear to be promising

    Notes: We have employed positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy to measure the free volumes in nanocomposites of polystyrene with addition of carbon nanofiber (CNF) and carbon dioxide as a function of composition and of temperature. We found that the glass transition temperature (Tg) increases as a function of CNF compositions but significantly decreases as the exposure of CO2. We also investigate the combination effect of CNF and CO2 and found that the CO2 significantly weakens the bonding between PS and CNF interfaces. The Tg changes are compared with DSC

    Notes: A polyurethane (PU) is compared with the polyurethane-unsaturated polyester (PU-UPE) hybrid to examine the changes of the resin-fiber interphase in the presence of a sizing compatible component, UPE, in the matrix resin. The formation of resin-fiber interphase is critical in structural reaction injection molding (SRIM) and resin transfer molding (RTM) because resin solidification (i.e., gelation and vitrification) occurs in seconds (SRIM) or minutes (RTM). Kinetic (DSC, FTIR spectroscopy), mechanical (single fiber test, fracture surface analysis), and microscopic (birefringence, SEM) studies were used to analyze the interface. Kinetic results indicate poor chemical compatibility of the sizing with PU and increased chemical interactions of the sizing with the PU-UPE resin. Mechanical and microscopic analyses also point in favor of improved interphasial behavior with the PU-UPE resin.

    Notes: This work presents the characterization of fibrous reinforcement mats in resin injection molding. The fiber mat characterization involved determining the mat permeability and compressibility. Mold filling experiments were conducted using two or more different fiber types in the mat stack, which created transverse porosity, permeability, and compressibility variations. The effect of these variations was studied by taking flow pressure measurements and observing the progress of the flow front of a non-reactive fluid filling a clear acrylic mold that contained the reinforcement mat stack.

    Notes: The primary goal of this study was to develop 2-D and 3-D computer simulation schemes for the mold filling processes of structural reaction injection molding (SRIM) and resin transfer molding (RTM) under isothermal conditions. The developed computer code was able to simulate the mold filling in molds with complicated geometry, Experiments were also carried out based on flow vitalizations. Experimental results were compared with the numerical simulations.

    Notes: When a resin in injected into the mold in liquid composite molding, the preplaced fiber mat may deform near the inlet gate because of the high momentum carried by the injected fluid. A fiber free region near the gate followed by the fiber mat deformation may emerge. This phenomenon is most likely to occur when the stacked fiber mats have low permeability and the resin has high viscosity. A set of mold filling experiments were carried out using an instrumented metal mold and a small transparent mold to investigate the fiber mat deformation during mold filling. Experimental results showed that the fiber mat deformation was limited to a small region near the gate and that deformation greatly reduced the molding pressure. A forced fiber mat deformation employing a modified gate design was proposed to facilitate mold filling in liquid composite molding.

    Notes: A sequential design optimization scheme based on artificial neural networks (ANN) is proposed. It is a combination of an ANN model and a nonlinear programming algorithm. The proposed scheme is implemented with network training, optimization, and sheet molding compound (SMC) process simulation in a closed loop. A “cyclic coordinate search” technique is employed to initiate the optimization process, to collect training data for the neural network model, and to perform a preliminary design sensitivity analysis. Emphasis is placed on the development of an integrated, automatic optimization-simulation design tool that does not rely on the designer's experience and interpretation. Testing results based on the design of heating channels in an SMC compression molding tool show that the optimal design can be achieved with fewer data points than other methods, such as factorial design. The efficiency of the ANN method would be greater as the number of design variables grows.

    Notes: In this study, systematic investigation of influence of processing variables on the tensile strength and resin-fiber interface of composites prepared by liquid composite molding process was carried out. The variables studied included injection pressure and mold/fiber mat temperature. Fibers were better wetted and bonded at lower injection pressure and higher molding temperature, which resulted in a higher tensile strength of molded composites. Single filament composite tests were also used in conjunction with birefringence studies to characterize interface bonding. Improved interfacial behavior was observed in the case of compatible systems.

    Notes: Design of molding tools and molding cycles for sheet molding compounds (SMC) is often expensive and time consuming. Computer simulation of the compression molding process is a desirable approach for reducing actual experimental runs. The focus of this work is to develop a computer model that can simulate the most important features of SMC compression molding, including material flow, heat transfer, and curing. A control volume/finite element approach was used to obtain the pressure and velocity fields and to compute the flow progression during compression mold filling. The energy equation and a kinetic model were solved simultaneously for the temperature and conversion profiles differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) was used to experimentally measure the polymer zation kinetics. A rheometrics dynamic analyzer (RDA) was used to measure the rheological changes of the compound. A series of molding experiments was conducted to record the flow front location and material temperature. The results were compared to simulated flow front and temperature profiles.
