Fibre Handleability, Damage Formation, Dust Emission and Morphology
The mechanical stress build up in fibre handling, the dynamical frictional phenomena between fibres and curved surfaces and formation of dust have been studied. Typical are stick slip behavior and threshold stress levels for formation of dust. The emission of dust can be limited by electrostatic charging. The measured coefficients of friction of the fibres depend on the mechanical properties, micro structure, morphology and sizing of the fibres, the friction materials, the deformation rates and applied loads
