Assess the Effect of Crystallinity Degree on Mechanical Properties of a Thermoplastic Composite Structure

Daher is an aircraft manufacturer and an industry and service equipment supplier. The student team worked to assess the effect of crystallinity degree on mechanical properties of a thermoplastic composite structure. The team determined the degree of crystallinity with different time and temperature exposition, validated analysis through chemical and physical tests, built a time temperature transformation graph for different crystallinity, and identified cure cycle parameters to repair the crystallinity of a thermoplastic composite structure.
