- Item12M Progress Report. Period concerning this report: 01.01.2018-31.12.2018.(Zenodo, 2018-12-30) Glaskova-Kuzmina, TatjanaDuring the first year of the project the main purpose was to choose, purchase and develop investigated materials: epoxy resin and at least two carbon nanofillers (nanotubes, nanofibres and/or graphene). The most promising material solution and the most optimal processing route were chosen and reported. Then two sets of epoxy and NC specimens were developed during Mobilities#2-3 to partner organization, Institute for Polymers, Composites and Biomaterials (Portici, Italy). The test specimens of epoxy and NC were subjected to environmental ageing: water absorption at 70 °C until equilibrium water content and heating at 70 °C, then freezing at ap. -20 °C to evaluate the most environmentally stable NC configuration. Based on preliminary results (without results after freezing), the most environmentally stable NC was epoxy filled with 0.1 wt. % of CNT/CNF, which had the lowest effect of temperature and moisture on thermal and electrical conductivities, along with the lowest equilibrium water content and diffusivity.
- Item24M Progress Report. Period concerning this report: 01.01.2019-31.12.2019.(Zenodo, 2019-12-13) Glaskova-Kuzmina, TatjanaDuring the second year of the project the main purpose was to design and develop smart fibre-reinforced plastic (FRP) plate by using the most environmentally stable nanocomposite (NC) configuration. As a result, within the support of collaboration partner Institute for Polymers, Composites and Biomaterials (IPCB, Portici, Italy) during Mobility#4 four basalt FRP plates were produced: two [0]8 plates impregnated with the epoxy or the NC, and two [0/45/90/-45]2 also impregnated with the epoxy or the NC, and two [0/45/90/-45]2. Additionally, a set of the specimens for the epoxy and epoxy filled with 0.1 wt.% of hybrid nanofiller (carbon nanotubes and nanofibers in the ratio 1:1) was developed for full year environmental ageing. The characterization of flexural, thermophysical and electrical properties was performed for all materials in uncondensed state (before the environmental ageing). After that the first season of environmental ageing (summer, water absorption at room temperature) has been started for all materials. Moreover, water absorption at 20 and 50 ºC until equilibrium has been performed for all materials.
- ItemDissemination/Communication Plan. Period concerning the plan: 01.01.2018-31.12.2020.(Zenodo, 2018-12-30) Glaskova-Kuzmina, TatjanaThe plan concerning different dissemination/communication activities during three years of the project implementation is given. Scientific results are proposed to be disseminated in well-recognized bi-annual international conferences, such as European Conference on Composite Materials (ECCM) and International Conference on Composite Materials (ICCM). Self-archiving of the main project results is planned within subject-based open-access repositories, such as ResearchGate and Zenodo. Two scientific publications in Q1-Q2 SCI journals and two popular scientific publications in popular scientific Latvian journals are foreseen. All data files obtained within the project are to be stored in central database, e.g. Dropbox. For wide audience the information will be regularly provided on professional Facebook profile of the post-doctorate Dr. Sc. Ing. T. Glaskova-Kuzmina.
- ItemDissemination/Communication Report. Period concerning this report: 01.01.2018-31.12.2018.(Zenodo, 2018-12-20) Glaskova-Kuzmina, TatjanaDuring the first year of the project implementation different dissemination/communication activities were carried out. First scientific results were presented on the 18th European Conference on Composite Materials (ECCM). For the dissemination of information among general public professional FACEBOOK profile was developed. Additionally, for better dissemination of project scientific results project profile “Environmental effects on physical properties of smart composites and fibre-reinforced plastics modified by carbonaceous nanofillers for structural applications” was developed at open-access database ZENODO (www.zenodo.org) under community POSTDOC-Latvia providing open-access to all published materials. Both profiles will be regularly updated with actual project results during full project implementation period.
- ItemDissemination/Communication Report. Period concerning this report: 01.01.2019-31.12.2019.(Zenodo, 2019-12-03) Glaskova-Kuzmina, TatjanaDuring the second year of the project implementation different dissemination/communication activities were carried out. The scientific results of the project were presented on two conferences ICSAAM 2019, September 12-15, 2019 (Ischia, Italy) and DFMN 2019, November 19-22, 2019 (Moscow, Russia). Based on the conference presentation two conference full papers were prepared and submitted for the publication in conference proceedings having open access and indexed in Scopus. One scientific publication was published in the special issue of Polymers (Q1 open access journal, IF 3.2). For the dissemination of information among general public professional FACEBOOK profile was regularly updated with press releases regarding the project activities. The project profile “Environmental effects on physical properties of smart composites and fibre-reinforced plastics modified by carbonaceous nanofillers for structural applications” was updated with annual reports at open-access database ZENODO (www.zenodo.org) under community POSTDOC-Latvia providing open-access to all published materials. Both profiles will be also regularly updated with actual project results during the last year of project implementation.
