Abstract
AbstractThrough resistance welding experiments, the effects of process parameters and heating elements (HE) on the welding strength of carbon fiber reinforced polyamide 6 (CF/PA6) composites were studied. Stainless steel mesh was used as the heating element for welding CF/PA6 composites. The mechanical properties of the weld were tested using a universal testing machine, and the internal structure and fracture of the joint were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The optimal parameters for welding CF/PA6 composites were determined. In addition, the growth of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) on the surface of the metal mesh significantly improved the welding strength, from 14.016 to 16.31 MPa. The experimental results showed that the optimal parameters included 22A current, 0.3 MPa pressure and 35 s welding time, and the optimal specification of the metal mesh heating element was 200 mesh. The burning time of the metal mesh was 10 s, and the optimum pickling time was 30 s.Highlights
