The dynamic characteristics of the Polypropylene honeycomb (PPHC) sandwich composites have been investigated under various temperatures (30°, 35°, 40°, 45°, 50°, 55°, 60°, 65°, 70°, 75° and 80°C) and different orientations (0° and 90°) of the glass fibers in the composites. Since the thermal properties of the constituent materials (glass fiber, epoxy resin and PPHC core) of the PPHC sandwich composites are different and the in-plane effect of the composites varies with the two different orientations (0° and 90°) of the fibers, the variation of the loss factor under the various temperatures are also different for these orientations. A two stage layup technique has been used to fabricate the sandwich composite specimens. Impulse technique associated with the half power bandwidth method has been used to evaluate the natural frequency and damping values of the sandwich composite under different temperatures. © (2014) Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland.
