Abstract

Carbon fiber reinforced plastics (CFRP) with the matrix of thermoplastic resin called as carbon fiber reinforced thermoplastics (CFRTPs) has been widely used in the industrial fields. Recently, a thermoplastic epoxy resin (TP-EP resin) has been developed as the matrix of CFRTP and carbon fiber reinforced TP-EP strands (CF/TP strands) molded by pultrusion method began to be used as tension rods for infrastructure under water absorption. On the other hand, an accelerated testing methodology (ATM) for predicting statistically long-term creep and fatigue strengths of CFRP was established by the authors. This study examines the prediction of statistical life time for these developed CF/TP strands at creep and fatigue tension loadings under the wet condition of water absorption with comparison to similar prediction under a dry condition by using our developed ATM. First, the static, creep, and fatigue tensile strengths of CF/TP strands were measured statistically at various constant temperatures under wet and dry conditions. The statistical long-term creep and fatigue tensile strengths for CF/TP strands under wet and dry conditions are predicted by substituting the measured data into the formulations of these strengths on our developed ATM. Finally, the influences of water absorption on the statistical long-term creep and fatigue strengths of CF/TP strands are cleared. In particular, the degradation of relaxation modulus of matrix TP-EP resin with increasing of elapsed time is accelerated with the water absorption, and the degradation of creep strength of CF/TP strand with increasing of elapsed time is also accelerated with the water absorption in the similar manner of matrix resin. On the other hand, the fatigue strength of CF/TP strand decreases scarcely with water absorption although this fatigue strength depends remarkably on the number of cycles to failure.
