Time-temperature superposition of flexural creep response of carbon fiber PEKK composites manufactured using different prepreg stacking sequence

In this work, the long-term creep response of high-performance carbon fiber PEKK (CF/PEKK) composites was evaluated by performing extrapolated short-term flexural creep tests at various temperatures. The time-temperature superposition principle (TTSP) with vertical as well as horizontal shifting was used to generate master curves at reference temperatures of 120°C. Satin weave-based CF/PEKK prepregs were used to manufacture eight-layer...
