It is demonstrated that Raman spectroscopy can be used to study both the deformation micromechanics of high-performance aramid polymer fibres and of these fibres in model, single-fibre epoxy resin matrix composites. It is shown that the peak position of the 1610 cm−1 aramid Raman band shifts to lower frequency under the action of tensile stress or strain due to the macroscopic deformation leading to direct stretching of the polymer molecules. These strain-induced band shifts can be used to map the distribution of stress or strain along a discontinuous, aramid fibre inside an epoxy resin matrix from which the interfacial shear stress can be calculated. It is shown that the behaviour is consistent with that predicted by the classical shear-lag analysis. The technique was also used to study the fragmentation process for an aramid fibre in an epoxy resin matrix in which the matrix strain exceeds the failure strain of the fibre. It is further demonstrated that the technique can be used to compare the interfacial properties of aramid fibres where the interfacial shear stress is found to be higher for sized fibres than for those which have been de-sized. |
