Composite Panel Data for FEA Modeling Summary

Introduction
This document outlines the technical specifications and mechanical test data for various composite panels manufactured by Innegra Technologies, LLC. These panels are constructed using combinations of Innegra™ S fabric, carbon fiber, fiberglass, and foam cores.

Panel Construction

Materials: The panels utilize Innegra™ S fabric, Carbon Fiber fabric, Fiberglass fabric, and Divinycell HP 60 foam. The fabrics are pre-impregnated with Axiom Ax-3201M or Ax-5201M resin systems.
Layup: Layup schedules vary, including alternating layers of carbon and Innegra, and combinations with foam cores. The cure cycle involves applying pressure (10-50 psi), heating to 250°F, holding for 60 minutes, and cooling to 180°F or below.
Resin Content: Consistently maintained at 38% ±3 by volume across different panels.

Mechanical Test Data

Panel Thickness: Ranges from 0.05 in to 0.43 in.
Panel Density: Varies from 0.53 g/cm³ to 1.96 g/cm³.
Strength and Modulus: Tensile strength ranges from 25.46 ksi to 79.72 ksi, with tensile modulus from 0.71 Msi to 3.61 Msi. Compressive strength ranges from 9.70 ksi to 67.96 ksi, with compressive modulus from 0.65 Msi to 3.70 Msi. Flexural strength ranges from 12.50 ksi to 217.20 ksi, with flexural modulus from 0.63 Msi to 3.59 Msi.
Shear and Impact: In-plane shear stress and modulus, short beam shear strength, and low velocity impact data are provided, with maximum loads ranging from 79.0 lb to 1020.0 lb and energy absorbed from 1.80 ft lbF to 15.6 ft lbF.

Testing Standards

All mechanical tests are conducted according to ASTM standards, including D3039 for tensile properties, D790 for compressive properties, D6641 for flexural properties, and D7136 for impact testing.
Testing is performed by a NADCAP accredited laboratory, ensuring compliance with industry standards.

General Observations
All panels demonstrate varying mechanical properties based on their specific construction, with consistent resin content and cure cycles. The use of different materials and layup schedules results in a range of strengths and moduli, suitable for different applications in composite panel design.
