Abstract
An aromatic polyamide-imide (PAI) film was reinforced with a plain cloth of aromatic polyamide fiber (Du Pont, Kevlar 49). The mechanical properties of the composite film were investigated by examination of the temperature dependencies of tensile dynamic mechanical properties, stress relaxation, and tensile stress-strain behaviors. The softening temperature of the composite film was lower than that of a homogeneous PAI film. At a high temperature, Kevlar fibers may act as a thermal conductor and lower the softening point of the PAI composite. The mechanical properties of the composite film at a high temperature are mostly controlled by the PAI matrix.
