Randomized trial assesses how cooling rate affects composite strength and properties in thermoplastics, indicating material performance implications.

This study investigates how different cooling rates affect the mechanical properties of carbon fiber composites with various thermoplastic matrices.
Examined carbon fiber composites with polypropylene, polyamide 6, and polyphenylene sulfide matrices.
Evaluated tensile strength and mechanical properties across varying cooling rates.
Proposed analytical formulas for estimating composite properties based on matrix and interface characteristics.
0º tensile strength showed no dependence on cooling rate, while 90º tensile strength varied significantly with matrix type and cooling rates.
Matrix modulus was observed to increase as cooling rates decreased, along with an increase in crystallinity.
Residual stress, interfacial shear strength, and mode II interlaminar fracture toughness were found to vary with cooling rate, with different trends for each thermoplastic matrix.
