Thes
3、e composite materials are reinforced with continuous fiberyarns that are formed into two-dimensional or three-dimensional fabrics. Various fabric constructions,such as woven, braided, stitched, and so forth, can be used to form the fabric reinforcement. Due tothe nature of the reinforcement, these m
4、aterials are often referred to as “textile” composites.Textile composites can be fabricated from 2-dimensional (2-D) or 3-dimensional (3-D) fabrics.Stitched preforms and 3-D fabrics contain through-thickness yarns, which can lead to greaterdelamination resistance. Textile composites are also amenabl
5、e to automated fabrication. However, themicrostructure (or fiber architecture) of a textile composite, which consists of interlacing yarns, canlead to increased inhomogeneity of the local displacement fields in the laminate. Depending upon thesize of the yarns and the pattern of the weave or braid,
6、the inhomogeneity within a textile compositecan be large compared to traditional tape laminates.Thus, special care should be exercised in the use of the current ASTM standards developed for highperformance composites. In many cases, the current ASTM standards are quite adequate if properattention is
7、 given to the special testing considerations for textile composites covered in this guide.However, in some cases, current standards do not meet the needs for testing of the required properties.This guide is intended to increase the users awareness of the special considerations necessary for thetesti
8、ng of these materials. It also provides the user with recommended ASTM standards that areapplicable for evaluating textile composites. The specific properties for which current ASTMstandards might not apply are also highlighted in this guide.1. Scope1.1 This guide is applicable to the testing of tex

Terminology3.1 DefinitionsDefinitions used in this guide are definedby variousASTM methods. Terminology D 3878
24、 defines termsrelating to high-modulus fibers and their composites. Termi-nology D 883 defines terms relating to plastics. TerminologyE 6 defines terms relating to mechanical testing. TerminologyE 456 defines terms relating to statistics. In the event of aconflict between definitions of terms, Termi
25、nology D 3878shall have precedence over the other standards. Terms relatingspecifically to textile composites are defined by Ref (1).83.2 textile unit cellIn theory, textile composites have arepeating geometrical pattern based on manufacturing param-eters. This repeating pattern is often referred to
26、 as the materials“unit cell.” It is defined as the smallest section of architecturerequired to repeat the textile pattern (see Figs. 1-4). Handlingand processing can distort the “theoretical” unit cell. Param-eters such as yarn size, yarn spacing, fabric construction, andfiber angle may be used to c
27、alculate theoretical unit celldimensions. However, several different “unit cells” may bedefined for a given textile architecture. For example, Fig. 2shows two different unit cells for the braided architectures.Thus, unit cell definition can be somewhat subjective based onvarying interpretations of t
28、he textile architecture. The user isreferred to Refs (1, 2) for further guidance. In this guide, to beconsistent, the term “unit cell” is used to refer to the smallestunit cell for a given textile architecture. This smallest unit cellis defined as the smallest section of the textile architecturerequ
29、ired to replicate the textile pattern by using only in-planetranslations (and no rotations) of the unit cell. Examples of thesmallest unit cells for some of the commonly used textilecomposites are shown in Figs. 1-4. For the 3-D weaves in Figs.3 and 4, the smallest unit cell length (as indicated) is
30、 defined bythe undulating pattern of the warp yarns. The smallest unit cellwidth is the distance between two adjacent warp stuffer yarncolumns (in the fill yarn direction) and the smallest unit cellheight is the consolidated woven composite thickness.4.

31、 to serve as a reference for thetesting of textile composite materials.4.2 The use of this guide ensures that proper considerationis given to the unique characteristics of these materials intesting.

Procedure for Use6.1 Review Sections 7-12 to become familiar with thespecial testing considerations for textile composites.6.2 Follow the recommended ASTM test method identifiedin Sec
37、tion 12 for determining a required property but refer backto this guide for recommendations on test specimen geometry,strain measurement, and reporting of results.7. Material Definition7.1 Constituent DefinitionVariations in type and amountof sizing on the fibers can significantly influence fabric q
38、ualityand subsequently material property test results. Each constitu-ent, that is, the fiber, fiber sizing type and amount, and resinshould be carefully documented prior to testing to avoidmisinterpretation of test results.7.1.1 Fiber and resin content should be measured andrecorded using at least o
39、ne unit cell of the material from at leastone location in each panel from which test specimens aremachined. Section 12 covers methods for measuring thesevalues.7.1.2 The following items should be documented each timea material is tested: fiber type, fiber diameter, fiber surfacetreatment or sizing t
40、ype and amount, and resin type.7.2 Fabric DefinitionDue to the limitless possibilitiesinvolved in placing yarns during the weaving and braidingoperations, it is important to carefully document the yarncounts (or yarn sizes), yarn spacings, yarn orientations, yarncontents, weave or braid pattern iden
41、tification, and yarninterlocking through the preform thickness. Such documenta-tion is required to properly define the textile unit cell and alsoto properly identify the textile material that was tested and toavoid any possible misinterpretations of the test results.7.3 Process DefinitionProcessing
42、techniques can affectfiber orientation, void content, and state of polymerization.These factors can in turn influence material property test resultssignificantly. Each of these items should be defined anddocumented prior to testing to avoid misinterpretation of thetest results.7.3.1 The amount of de
43、bulking of the preform duringprocessing can affect the fiber volume and also the fiberorientation through the thickness. In-plane fiber orientation canbe adversely affected during the placement of the preform inthe mold. Both overall and local variations in fiber orientationshould be documented.7.3.
44、2 As a minimum the following process conditionsshould be documented for each material tested: preformthickness, preform tackifier (or resin compatible binder) used,molding technique, molding temperature, molding pressure,molding time, and panel dimensions.8. Strain Gage Selection8.1 The surface prep
45、aration, gage installation, lead wireconnection, and verification check procedures described in TestMethods E 251 and Guide E 1237 are applicable to textilecomposites and should be used in the application of bondedresistance strain gages.8.2 The strain gage size selected for each particular textilec
46、omposite should take into consideration the size of the unitcell for the particular textile composite architecture. Eachdifferent textile architecture has an independent unit cell size,which defines the extent of inhomogeniety in the displacementfields. The size of the gage should be large enough re
47、lative tothe textile unit cell to provide a reliable measurement of theaverage strain magnitude. It is recommended for most textilearchitectures that the gage length and width should, at aminimum, equal the length and width of the smallest unit cell.This applies to specimens loaded in the axial fibe
48、r direction(longitudinal direction) and to specimens loaded perpendicularto the axial fibers (transverse direction). For stitched compos-ites, it is recommended that the gage length and width should,at a minimum, equal the stitch spacing and stitch pitch,respectively. The user is also referred to Re
49、f (3) for furtherguidance.9. Sampling and Test Specimens9.1 SamplingIt is recommended that at least five speci-mens be tested per series unless valid results can be obtainedusing less specimens, such as by using a designed experiment.FIG. 4 Smallest Unit Cell Length for Layer-to-Layer Angle-Interlock WeaveD6856034For statistically significant data, the procedure outlined inPractice E 122 should be used and the method of samplingshould be reported.9.2 Specimen GeometryThe test specimen geometry shallbe in accordance with the corresponding ASTM test methodand the specimen geometr
