Show more >Recently, triaxial braids made from ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) have been recognized as one of the most popular composite reinforcements in the aerospace and defense fields. To further explore the mechanical characteristics of this material, a detailed experimental study on tensile behavior is reported in this paper. The triaxial braids show a “double-peak” phenomenon in tensile strength and deformation, caused by axial yarns and the in-plane shearing of bias yarns. The evolution of the braiding angle, measured during these tensile tests, is discussed according to the braiding parameters (initial braiding angle, number of axial yarns). Using the high conductivity properties of the UHMWPE material, the temperature caused by inter-yarn friction during tensile tests is also studied. This temperature is related to the evolution of the braiding angle. The temperature increases with the increasing number of axial yarns and decreases with increasing braiding angle. This study provides an experimental database on the influence of braiding parameters on the tensile behavior of triaxial braids.Show less >
