EXTRINSICALLY CARBON FIBER REINFORCED POLYMER/ALUMINUM FOAM SANDWICH COMPOSITES

Abstract

The design and the requirements within the constructive development of technical systems cause a connection of different material properties and the combination of different production processes to novel and innovative material systems. Therefore, materials are specifically positioned according to their mechanical properties in the technical system, and manufactured to meet a manageable manufacturing strategy to the component or semi-finished product. By using this fusion of technology, high-performance components fulfill the claims for high economic and technical performance in complex assembly structures of today’s (and tomorrow’s) technical systems. They are flexible, compact and meet the current requirements for efficiency and safety. Due to the achievable synergy effects, multimaterial assemblies are increasingly applied, especially in automotive lightweight design. In this context, the present paper deals with the development of innovative Hybrid Sandwich Composites (HSC), made of Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastics (CFRP) arranged with new isotropic Aluminum Foam (AF) structures. The novel HSC form the basis for novel weight-optimized, as well as cost-effective, applications and lead to high a bending stiffness and high strength of structures, that also show excellent damping properties at high damage tolerances. The flexural modulus and the flexural strength were increased by a variation and optimization of the CFRP/AF-interfaces.
