The flexural and peel properties of this Mg based laminated composites are examined and analyzed. The flexural stress and modulus along the longitudinal direction are 960 MPa and 54.6 GPa, respectively, suggesting a sufficiently high resistance against bending deflection. The peel strength is about 150 N, superior to that of the epoxy-resin-adhered Al/CFRP laminated composites. Experimental Flexural Test Three-point bending tests according to ASTM D 790-02. Span-to-depth ratio 28:1; strain rate 1.7x10-4 s-1. Peeling Test T-peel tests according to ASTM D 1876-95. OM micrograph taken from the peel-tested specimen, Mg layer without CrO3 etching .

The PEEK resin and carbon fibers were peeled from the APC-2 prepreg. • Summary • The Mg/CF/PEEK Mg based laminated composites were successfully fabricated through a simple hot pressing method. This promising method can fabricate high performances and low density laminated composites in terms of tensile as well as flexural properties. • The flexural modulus, stress and strain along the longitudinal and transverse directions of the Mg based laminated composite are 54.6 GPa, 960 MPa and 0.03; and 36.5 GPa, 318 MPa and 0.07, respectively. The current laminated composite shows sufficiently high resistance to bending deflection. • Multiple fracture modes are observed in the longitudinal flexural specimen, while a more simple behavior is seen in transverse counterpart. • The peel strength of the Mg/APC-2/Mg laminate is superior to that of the epoxy-resin-adhered Al/CFRP laminated composites. • Pretreatment of the Mg sheets with or without CrO3 etching shows significant differences in terms of the resulting interfacial bonding between Mg and APC-2. • Acknowledgement • The authors gratefully acknowledge the sponsorship from National Science Council of Taiwan, ROC, under the project number NSC 92-2216-E-110-017.
