    Optimización - MSR del material compuesto de matriz epoxi reforzado con fibra natural chambira (Astrocaryum) y sintética (Kevlar) mediante infusión de resina al vacío y su incidencia en las propiedades mecánicas

    In the following work we will focus on the elaboration and characterization of the search for new hybrid and low weight sandwich materials, using different configurations in the reinforcement stacking. In order to achieve a reduction in weight and facilitate the elaboration, an epoxy resin reinforced with chambira fiber woven with kevlar fiber was used, taking into account the number of layers and positions to be worked, using the vacuum resin infusion method and its impact on the mechanical properties, for the specimens a curing at different temperatures and laser cutting with CO2 was performed. The Box-Behnken design method based on response surfaces was used, which allows the input of three continuous factors with their levels respectively, which are detailed as follows: Fiber Orientation 1 and Orientation 2 between 45, 0 and -45 degrees and curing temperature with 60, 90 and 120 degrees Celsius. At the time of the design, the number of treatments to be carried out was specified and in the mechanical tests of each sample, an analysis of the data was made and organized and validated in order to have their mechanical properties. The tests performed on the specimens yielded several results which helped to determine the most optimal configuration of the layers.

    Obtención de un material compuesto de matriz poliéster y lana de oveja para evaluar el comportamiento mecánico

    The production of sheep wool is one of the natural resources that are not used at present, its cost is relatively low and friendly to the environment, so in the present experimental project a composite material was developed that is based on a polyester resin matrix and reinforcement configuration of sheep wool, in which two types of volumetric fractions were taken 70% matrix - 30% reinforcement and 60% matrix - 40% reinforcement, two types of configurations were also made of reinforcement: discontinuity to the longitudinal axis and discontinuity to the transverse axis. The manufacturing of the specimens was carried out in a compression steel mold. The tensile and bending tests were carried out in the Metalmecánico Carrocero Productive Production Center and the impact test was carried out in the Materials Laboratory of the Faculty of Civil and Mechanical Engineering. By means of tensile, bending and impact tests performed on the specimens and under ASTM D3039-00, ASTM D7264-07 and ASTM D5628-10 standards respectively, the composite material that obtained the best mechanical characteristics was determined, being this group 2 the which is composed of 70% polyester matrix and 30% sheep wool, with a configuration of discontinuity to the transverse axis.
