impact resistance
Fig. 7: Fracture surface of 4.5gsm Xantu.Layr™ nanofibre veil interleaved fatigue
test specimen after 1,124,000 cycles (600x magnification)
evident that some nanofibre pull-out had occurred, which would
have resulted in crack energy dissipation.
Practical applications
In summary, Xantu.Layr™ is particularly suitable for improving
the performance of composite structures that are prone to impact
damage, delamination, high flexure or fatigue loadings. There are
many examples of products performing better with the inclusion
of Xantu.Layr™. One such example is a carbon/epoxy fishing rod
manufactured by Kilwell Sports Ltd., where a 100% increase in
breaking load was demonstrated with the placement of 1.5 g/m2
Xantu.Layr™ veils in-between each ply.
In addition to improvements in mechanical properties, Xantu.
Layr™ has also been seen to greatly reduce the amount of delamination observed in composites during machining, allowing composite tubes to be turned on a lathe to get a high degree of roundness
and high quality finish. This veil has also been seen to reduce visible
micro-cracking on the surfaces of flexible composite parts.
Xantu.Layr™ is available in 1m wide, 100m length rolls (MOQ),
but sample packs and custom widths and lengths are available on
request. n
