INS studies of carbon fibre polyimide composites

Abstract: Advanced composites are engineering material that offer similar mechanical properties to metal alloys but are much lighter. The materials consist of fibres embedded in a polymer matrix and there is a need for a spectroscopic technique that can examine the cured resins in the presence of the fibres to aid the understanding of the cure chemistry. Inelastic neutron scattering (INS) has considerable potential in this regard since two common fibre types: glass and carbon are, almost, invisible to neutrons.
