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. 4

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 X represents the required material batch letter defined as: material containing 3K Plain Weave Carbon from one mill roll, impregnated with one batch of resin in one continuous manufacturing operation with traceability to all components. and the # represents the required number of replicates for that batch. For example, A6, B6, C6 refers to three material batches A, B, and C; with six specimens per batch for a total requirement of 18 test specimens. The minimum sample requirements are shown, but more samples may have been tested. 8

Per previous revisions, these panels are Batch E. All tested specimens and data sets that are labeled Batch E are equivalent to Batch D. 2 CTD: One batch of material tested (test temperature = o F, moisture content = as fabricated, soak time at 65 was 3 min.) 3 RTD: Three batches of material tested (test temperature = o F, moisture content = as fabricated) 4 ETW: Four batches of material tested (test temperature = o F, moisture content = equilibrium per section 1.5.2, soak time at 180 was 60 sec.) 5 ETD: Three batches of material tested (test temperature = o F, moisture content = as fabricated, soak time at 180 was 3 min.) 6 Dry specimens are as fabricated specimens that have been maintained at ambient conditions in an environmentally controlled laboratory. 7 The generic 418 resin density value (1.2 g/cc) is used to calculate void content and does not take into account the effects of the resin/hardener mix ratio or the cure cycle. 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 Fluid Sensitivity Screening Although epoxy-based materials historically have not been shown to be sensitive to fluids other than water or moisture, the influence of some fluids other than water or moisture on the mechanical properties were characterized. These fluids fell into two exposure classifications. The first class was considered to be in contact with the material for an extended period of time, and the second class was considered to be wiped on and off (or evaporate) with relatively short exposure times. To assess the degree of sensitivity of fluids other than water or moisture, Table shows the fluids which were used in this qualification plan. 10

Table describes the fluid sensitivity-testing matrix with respect to the fluids defined in Table Engineering judgment and statistical tests were used to assess the degree of material degradation. The results of this screening are included following the data sheets in section Table 1.5.3: Material Qualification Program for Fluid Resistance Fluid Type Test Method Test Temp.

12 1.5.4 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: 90 (fill) Tension Strength and Modulus 90 (fill) 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: 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 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 12

13 1.5.5 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 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. 13

Since each specific aircraft application of the qualified material may have different Maximum 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 B MOL B RTD BRTD BETD TRTD TMOL T T RTD ETD 14

15 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 B ) ETW 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 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 15

77 3.2.3 Representative Shear Stress-Strain Curve The following shear stress-strain curve is representative of the 3K PW Carbon / MGS 418 Wet Lay-up system. The tension and compression stress-strain curves are not presented in graphical form. If strain design allowables from these tests are required, simple one-dimensional linear stress-strain relationships may be used to obtain corresponding strain design values. This process should approximate tensile and compressive strain behavior relatively well but may produce extremely conservative strain values in shear due to the nonlinear behavior. A more realistic approach for shear strain design allowables is to use a maximum strain value of 5% (reference MIL-HDBK- 17-1E, section 5.7.6). If a nonlinear analysis of the material s shear behavior is required, the curve-fit of the shear stress-strain curve may be used. The representative shear stress-strain curve was obtained by taking the average of all the sample shear curves and determining the best-fit line through the data. The actual data points also presented on the chart to demonstrate material variability. 77
