Abstract
winding configuration were produced on CNC filament winding machines (10 N fiber tension and ~11 mm bandwidth). In the experiments, a 34 m/s impact velocity was set using the double-disc method, and five different particle impingement angles (30, 45, 60, 75, and 90°) were used to determine the erosive effect on the outer surfaces of filament wound composite pipes under the influence of 600 μm erodent particles with angular geometry in the test set, complying with the ASTM G76-95 standard. The winding patterns in the lamina (±55 angle-ply laminate region) and zigzag (±55 zigzag region) regions of BFR/EP pipes were determined to have significant effects on solid particle erosion resistance, as evidenced by the SEM images.
