4 1.0 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Scope The Advanced General Aviation Transport Experiments (AGATE) consortium is an industry-university-government partnership initiated by NASA to create the technological basis for revitalization of the United States general aviation industry. It was founded in 1994 to develop affordable new technology as well as the industrial standards and certification methods for composite airframe, cockpit, flight systems and airspace infrastructure for Federal Aviation Regulations (FAR) Part 23 aircraft. The composite material properties contained within the document were generated under Work Package 3 : Integrated Design and Manufacturing Methods. Although AGATE was focused towards the small general aviation aircraft (Part 23), the test methods and results contained in this document are consistent with MIL-HDBK-17-1E,2D,3E - Military Handbook for Polymer Matrix Composites. All material, specimens, fixtures and test results contained within this document were traceable and conformed by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) as part of the AGATE effort. It should be noted that before application of the basis values presented in this document to design, demonstration of the ability to consistently produce equivalent material properties as that evaluated during this program should be substantiated through an acceptable test program. The test methods and results described in this document are intended to provide basic composite properties essential to most methods of analysis. These properties are considered to provide the initial base of the building block approach. Additional coupon level tests and subelement tests may be required to fully substantiate the full-scale design. 5

8 1.5 Methodology Test Matrix Testing was performed according to the test methods delineated in the test matrix, with modifications as referenced in the AGATE report, Material Qualification and Equivalency for Polymer Matrix Composite Material Systems. The test matrix for properties included in this document is listed on the next page, with the following notation cited in each column: # x # where the first # represents the required number of prepreg batches, defined as: Prepreg containing 7781 E-Glass Fabric from one mill roll, impregnated with one batch of resin in one continuous manufacturing operation with traceability to all components. The second # represents the required number of replicates per prepreg batch. For example, 3 x 6 refers to three prepreg batches of material and six specimens per prepreg batch for a total requirement of 18 test specimens. 9

10 1.5.2 Environmental Conditioning All wet conditioned samples were exposed to elevated temperature and humidity conditions to establish moisture saturation of the material. Specimens were exposed to 85 ± 5 % relative humidity and 145 ± 5 F until an equilibrium moisture weight gain of traveler, or witness coupons (1 x 1 x specimen thickness) was achieved. ASTM D5229 and SACMA SRM 11 were used as guidelines for environmental conditioning and moisture absorption. Effective moisture equilibrium was achieved when the average moisture content of the traveler specimen changed by less than 0.05% for two consecutive readings within a span of 7 ± 0.5 days and was expressed by: W i -W W b i - 1 < where W i = weight at current time W i-1 = weight at previous time W b = baseline weight prior to conditioning It is common to see small fluctuations in an unfitted plot of the weight gain vs. time curve. There were no fluctuations that made significant errors in results or caused rejection in the moisture equilibrium criteria. Once the traveler coupons passed the criteria for two consecutive readings, the samples were removed from the environmental chamber and placed in a sealed bag with a moist paper or cotton towel for a maximum of 14 days until mechanical testing. Strain gauged specimens were removed from the controlled environment for a maximum of 2 hours for application of gages in ambient laboratory conditions Normalization Procedures The normalization procedure attempts to reduce variability in fiber-dominated material properties by adjusting raw test values to a specified fiber volume content. Only the following properties were normalized: Laminate Tensile Strength and Modulus Laminate Compression Strength and Modulus The normalization procedure was adopted from MIL-HDBK-17-1E, section The procedure which was used to normalize the data is based on two primary assumptions: 11

11 The relationship between fiber volume fraction and ultimate laminate strength is linear over the entire range of fiber/resin ratios. (It neglects the effects of resin starvation at high fiber contents.) Fiber volume is not commonly measured for each test sample, so this method accounts for the fiber volume variation between individual test specimens by utilizing a relationship between fiber volume fraction and laminate cured ply thickness. This relationship is virtually linear in the 0.45 to 0.65 fiber volume fraction range. Additional information is detailed in FAA Document DOT/FAA/AR-00/47: Material Qualification and Equivalency for Polymer Matrix Composite Material Systems. For all normalized data contained in this document, the test values are normalized by cured ply thickness according to: where: CPT Normalized Value = Test Value CPT specimen normalizing Average Sample Thickness CPT specimen = # of plies Statistical Analysis When compared to metallic materials, fiber reinforced composite materials exhibit a high degree of material property variability. This variability is due to many factors, including but not limited to: raw material and prepreg manufacture, material handling, part fabrication techniques, ply stacking sequence, environmental conditions, and testing techniques. This inherent variability drives up the cost of composite testing and tends to render smaller data sets than those produced for metallic materials. This necessitates the usage of statistical techniques for determining reasonable design allowables for composites. The analyses and design allowable generation for both A and B basis values were performed using the procedure detailed in section 5.3 of FAA Document DOT/FAA/AR- 00/47: Material Qualification and Equivalency for Polymer Matrix Composite Material Systems. 12

12 1.5.5 Material Performance Envelope and Interpolation Using the B-basis numbers, a material performance envelope may be generated for the material system by plotting these values as a function of temperature. Figure shows an example material performance envelope using B-basis values. 120 Actual Basis Value Estimated Value 100 B-Basis Strength Values (ksi) CTD Material Performance Envelope RTD RTW ETD ETW Temperature ( o F) Figure Material performance envelope. Since each specific aircraft application of the qualified material may have different Material Operational Limits (MOL) than those tested in the material qualification (which is usually the upper limit), some applications may require a reduced MOL. In this case, simple linear interpolation may be used to obtain the corresponding basis values at the new application MOL. This interpolation may be accomplished using the following simple relationships assuming T RTD < T MOL < T ETD : For the corresponding MOL dry basis value, the interpolated basis value using the qualification data is 13

13 B MOL = B RTD ( BRTD BETD ) ( TRTD TMOL ) ( T T ) RTD ETD where B MOL = new application basis value interpolated to T MOL B RTD = basis RTD strength value B ETD = basis ETD strength value T RTD = RTD test temperature T ETD = ETD test temperature T MOL = new application MOL temperature For the corresponding MOL wet basis value, an estimated Room Temperature Wet (RTW) value must be calculated. This may be accomplished by the simple relation B RTW = B RTD ( B BETW ) ETD The interpolated wet basis value using the qualification data may then be obtained by B MOL = B RTW ( BRTW BETW )( TRTW TMOL ) ( T T ) RTW ETW where: B MOL = new application basis value interpolated to T MOL B RTW = estimated basis RTW strength value B ETW = basis ETW strength value T RTW = RTW (i.e., RTD) test temperature T ETW = ETW test temperature T MOL = new application MOL temperature These equations may also be used for interpolated mean strengths as well as A-basis values with the appropriate substitutions. It should be noted that because unforeseen material property drop-offs with respect to temperature and environment can occur, extrapolation to a higher MOL should not be attempted without additional testing and verification. In addition, the interpolation equations shown above are practical for materials obeying typical mechanical behavior. In most cases, some minimal amount of testing may also be required to verify the interpolated values. 14

14 Interpolation Example This section provides an example of linear interpolations to a specific application environment less than the tested upper material limit used in qualification. Assuming a specific application environment of 150 o F, Figure depicts the linear interpolation of the B-basis design allowable to this environment. Using the above equations along with the nominal testing temperatures (see Table 1.5.1), the interpolated basis values at 150 o F become ETD : B MOL = ksi ETW : B MOL = ksi 120 Actual Basis Value Estimated Value 100 CTD RTD B-Basis Strength Values (ksi) RTW ETD ETW Temperature ( o F) Figure Example of 150 o F interpolation for B-basis values. 15

17 2.2 Process Specification This specification does not address issues relating to safety, quality control, bagging material selection, bagging procedure, tool preparation, or equipment selection. Although these may affect overall part quality, it is the responsibility of the end user to develop procedures related to these issues in a manner that produces parts with high quality and consistency. The following oven cure procedures are excerpts from Cirrus Design Corporation GEP0001 Rev. C specification, Manufacture of Glass-Fiber Prepreg Assemblies, 260 F Cure. All test specimens were cured per this specification by Cirrus Design Corporation. However, the effects of the upper and lower limits of vacuum, temperature, cure time, heat-up rate and hold temperature on the mechanical and thermal properties have not been investigated. Prior to Cure Unitape orientation angle shall be within ±3 of the specified orientation. Before placing a bagged assembly in the oven, apply at least 22 Hg vacuum and check for bag leaks. Bag leaks greater than 3.0 Hg during 5 minutes shall be corrected. Debulk shall be performed every ten layers, or more frequently if required. Oven Cure Procedure The maximum air temperature of the oven prior to loading is 160 F. Connect the calibrated thermocouples to the parts, allowing at least one thermocouple per part. The temperature of the part must be 150 F or less before removing from the oven Cure all prepreg parts according to the following cure cycle chart. 18
