Effect of Carbon Fiber Orientation when Cold Spraying Metallic Powders onto Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymers
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract A previous study on the pull-off testing of metallized carbon fiber reinforced polymers (CFRPs) via cold spray showed that better adhesion strengths could be obtained when features such as carbon fibers or surfacing elements were present, by providing potential mechanical interlocking features. In this work, the effect of the fiber orientation on the deposition and bonding of the metallic coating to the thermoplastic composite substrate is explored. Pure Sn powder was cold sprayed onto two thermoplastic Polyether-Ether- Ketone (PEEK) CFRP substrates, containing carbon fibers with different orientations: one had fibers in the plane of the substrate (uni-directional tape), while the other had fibers mostly perpendicular to the substrate (ZRT film). Characterization of the coatings was performed via scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and confocal microscopy, and some aspects of mechanical testing (namely wear and scratch testing) were carried out to assess the effect of the substrate on the properties of the coatings.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
