Laser induced breakdown spectroscopy of polymer matrix composites for real-time analysis of trace surface contaminants: A review
Source abstract
Abstract
Abstract Laser induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) is a materials characterization technique that has been advanced and refined to provide in situ, real-time quality control of polymer matrix composite (PMC) surfaces. A LIBS system was designed and assembled at the NASA Langley Research Center in order to detect ultralow concentrations of silicone contamination on carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) materials. The LIBS instrument provides high sensitivity detection and nearly non-destructive inspection of PMC substrates prior to adhesive bonding. This review focuses on work conducted using LIBS as a characterization tool for surface contaminants for improved adhesive bonding and coating processes of CFRP materials. In addition, this work describes how the LIBS technique was advanced by analyzing the laser parameters, studying the laser-matter interactions, and comparing results to X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Discussion is also presented on LIBS instrumentation, recommendations for laser parameters and instrumentation components, LIBS technique maturity, applications, and limitations.
