Abstract
An experimental study was conducted to characterise temperature effects on the relationship between the plane-strain fracture toughness of polyetherimide (PEI) matrix and mode-I and mode-II interlaminar fracture toughness of woven carbon fibre/polyetherimide (CF/PEI) thermoplastic composites. The decreasing trend in initiation toughness, GIC,ini and GIIC,ini, for mode-I and mode-II interlaminar fracture was not consistent with the increase in...
