Failure at the joint between the adhesive and the honeycomb. The adhesive stays on the surface layer but not on the honeycomb. This is usually known as pull out. Refer to Figure.
NOTE
Unbond which occurs in composites can also occur in honeycomb structures with metal perforate and non-perforate surface layers.
Adhesive failure.
This is failure at the joint between the bonded surface and the adhesive. The adhesive stays on one of the surfaces.
For honeycomb structures, adhesive failure can be divided in to two types.
NOTE
The adhesive will stay on the surface layer at the locations related to the honeycomb cells.Cohesive failure.
This is failure in the adhesive material. The adhesive stays on each surface. Refer to Figure.
Unbond (or Disbond).
The separation of two bonded surfaces. Refer to Figure. There are two types of unbond as follows:
Cracked or split.
A crack or split through a composite laminate; is seen as a small opening in the composite surface layer or the complete composite thickness. It is usually caused when the material is hit or because of distortion. Refer to Figure.
Fretted.
This is seen as a rubbed surface with the protection removed from the fibers, this can result in broken fibers. Refer to Figure.
Eroded.
This is seen as the removal of the surface resin layer caused because of the effects of weather. When the protection is removed from the fibers it can make the surface rough. It is possible for the fibers to become eroded. Refer to Figure.
Cavity.
This is an empty space that occurs usually in the surface layers with a large quantity of resin or infilled locations. Refer to Figure.
Sharp object.
Usually a split or a crack, possibly with related delamination near the damage. Refer to Figure.
NOTE
In honeycomb sandwich structures, impact damage could include other types of damage to the honeycomb.Blunt object.
Usually delamination of the layers with a possible related split, crack or unbond. Damage usually extends out of the immediate location of the damage. Refer to Figure.
Impact damage.
There are two groups of impact damage:
Torn fibers.
Strips of lifted surface fibers, pulled and peeled along the fiber length. Damage is frequently made larger because of the air flow until the fiber breaks. Refer to Figure.
Blistered.
This is bubbles on the surface caused because of local delamination below the surface layer. Refer to Figure.
Resin degradation.
This is deterioration of the resin of a composite laminate, at the surface and also internally, which results in delamination and loose fibers. Refer to Figure.
Fire or heat damage.
This can cause one or all of the conditions that follow:
