Joining of Contact Pins and Conductive Compounds via Injection Molding – Influence of the Flow Situation on the Electrical Contact Resistance
(2020-04-09)
While a lot of research can be found in the field of bulk resistance of carbon filled polymers, comparatively few papers focus on contact resistance between compound and metal contacts. Due to that small number of researches that deal with contact resistances, studies of the influence of injection molding conditions and parameters on the contact resistance are also very rare. In contradiction to that, these influences on bulk resistance have been studied. The objective of this work was to investigate the electrical ...

A Closer Look at the Bonding Capacity of Thick Metal-Plastic Hybrids
(2019-03-01)
Metal-plastic hybrids have a lot of advantages compared to purely metal or purely plastic parts. A good design for metal-plastic hybrids can help to save weight, for example in automotive applications. Therefore, it is important to understand the joining mechanisms between both materials. Aluminum AlSi9Cu3(Fe) and polyamide 6.6 with 35 % glass fibers were used as joining partners. The materials were joined by enclosing the metal part at least partially with plastic right inside the injection molding tool. Afterwards, ...

UV Pre-Treatment for Polycarbonate for Bonding LSR in a Multi-Component Injection Molding Process
(2019-03-01)
In this study, the influence of UVC radiation and the influence of ozone on the surface energy of specimens made of polycarbonate were investigated. In an additional step, the peeling resistance of silicone flaps, which were overmolded, onto pre-treated PC plates of multicomponent specimens were analyzed. For this purpose, the samples were exposed to UVC radiation for different lengths of time, ranging from 5 s to 3 600 s. To further evaluate the influence of the ozone created by the UVC in the presence of oxygen, ...

Additive manufacturing of Co-Ni-Ga high-temperature shape memory alloy - Processability 3 and phase transformation behavior
(2019)
Co-Ni-Ga high-temperature shape memory alloy is additively processed by selective laser melting for the first time. Reversiblemartensitic transformation of the as-built material is proven by differential scanning calorimetry. Microstructural analysis reveals a columnar-grained microstructure due to epitaxial solidification. Columnar-grained microstructures are characterized by a very low degree of constraints being beneficial for superior functional performance in numerous shape memory alloys. However, process-induced ...

Investigations on Tightness of Polymer-Metal Hybrids in Environments with Thermal, Media, and Mechanical Loads
(2017-07-31)
With polymer-metal hybrids becoming more commonly used as structural components it was investigated how they perform in complex environments with combined thermal, media, and mechanical loads. Special attention was put on media tightness under said loads. This paper sums up the activities of the polymer technology research group of the University of Kassel on hybrids produced by overmolding metal inserts. Investigations concerning joint strength and influence of (cyclic) temperature loads and chemical corrosion on ...

Mechanical Properties of Polydimethylsiloxane as a Function of the Amount and Type of Crosslinking Agent
(2017-06-13)
In this investigation, a high-consistency rubber (HCR) was mixed with five different, typically used crosslinking agents that are based on organic peroxide. Furthermore, the amount of crosslinking agent was varied in order to quantify the effect on the mechanical properties. All materials were processed in a hot pressing process, and, subsequently, post-cured. The properties were characterized by the measurement of the swelling ratio, shore A-hardness, rebound resilience and tensile test. We successfully proved that ...

Pathways towards grain boundary engineering for improved structural performance in polycrystalline Co-Ni-Ga shape memory alloys
(2018)
Co-Ni-Ga high-temperature shape memory alloys attracted a lot of scientific attention due to their superior functional material properties in recent years. In the single crystalline state Co-Ni-Ga HT-SMAs feature a good pseudoelastic response up to 500°C. However, in the polycrystalline condition Co-Ni-Ga suffers significant grain constraints and premature fracture at grain boundaries. In this regard, crystallographic orientation of the grain being involved as well as morphology and geometrical orientation of the ...

Influence of the Miniaturisation Effect on the Effective Stiffness of Lattice Structures in Additive Manufacturing
(2020-10-29)
Thin-walled and cellular structures are characterised by superior lightweight potential due to their advantageous stiffness to weight ratio. They find particular interest in the field of additive manufacturing due to robust and reproducible manufacturability. However, the mechanical performance of such structures strongly depends on the manufacturing process and resultant geometrical imperfections such as porosity, deviations in strut thickness or surface roughness, for which an understanding of their influence is ...

Damage Tolerance Evaluation of E-PBF-Manufactured Inconel 718 Strut Geometries by Advanced Characterization Techniques
(2020-01-06)
By means of electron beam powder bed fusion (E-PBF), highly complex lightweight structures can be manufactured within short process times. Due to the increasing complexity of producible components and the entangled interplay of damage mechanisms, common bulk material properties such as ultimate tensile or fatigue strength are not sufficient to guarantee safe and reliable use in demanding applications. Within this work, the damage tolerance of E-PBF-manufactured Ni-based alloy Inconel 718 (IN 718) strut geometries ...

Determination and Validation of Residual Stresses in CFRP/Metal Hybrid Components Using the Incremental Hole Drilling Method
(2020-09-21)
Lightweight materials contribute to an efficient decrease in fuel consumption in the automotive and aircraft industries. Hybrid components made of metal and carbon fiber-reinforced plastics (CFRP) have a high potential in lightweight applications due to their high strength-to-weight ratio. For cost-effective processing of hybrid materials, advanced manufacturing processes such as the prepreg-press-technology have been developed, in which the bonding between a metallic component and a fiber compound is exclusively ...
