Abstract
This paper presents the in-plane deformation and cyclic mechanical properties of CF/PEEK (Carbon Fiber-Reinforced Polyetheretherketone)-reinforced TPU (thermoplastic polyurethanes) flexible composites with a zero Poisson ratio. A novel CF/PEEK honeycomb reinforcement with a zero Poisson ratio was fabricated by using 3D-printing technology. Then, TPU was bonded in the two sides of the CF/PEEK honeycomb reinforcement. The in-plane deformation ability and cyclic mechanical properties were evaluated. The results show that the zero Poisson ratio flexible composite can achieve a large in-plane plastic deformation of more than 50% and can better maintain the zero Poisson ratio superstructure. By collecting and comparing the mechanical characteristic values of the CF/PEEK flexible composite under a cyclic load, the CF/PEEK flexible composite MH22-t0.6-CT has the best structural stability. The length of the structure was increased by about 12.53%. By studying the deformation mechanism and failure mechanisms of the flexible composites, the in-plane recyclability of the flexible composites was evaluated, which provides the basic research basis for large-scale in-plane deformation composites.
