Improvement of interfacial adhesion for plasma‐treated aramid fiber‐reinforced poly(phthalazinone ether sulfone ketone) composite and fiber surface aging effects

Interfacial adhesion between the fiber and the matrix in a composite is a primary factor for stress transfer from the matrix to the fiber. In this study, oxygen plasma treatment method was applied to modify the fiber surface for improving interfacial adhesion of aramid fiber‐reinforced poly(phthalazinone ether sulfone ketone) (PPESK) composite. Composite interfacial adhesion properties were determined by interlaminar shear strength (ILSS) using a short‐beam bending test. The composite interfacial adhesion mechanism was discussed by SEM. The changes of chemical composition and wettability for plasma‐treated fiber surfaces stored in air as long as 10 days were investigated by XPS and dynamic contact angle analysis (DCAA), respectively. Results indicated that oxygen plasma treatment was an effective method for improving interfacial adhesion; plasma‐treated fiber surface suffered aging effects during storage in air.

Improvement of PBO fiber surface and PBO/PPESK composite interface properties with air DBD plasma treatment

The interface of fibrous composites is a key factor to the whole properties of the composites. In this study, the effects of air dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma discharge power density on surface properties of poly(p‐phenylene benzobisoxazole) (PBO) fiber and the interfacial adhesion of PBO fiber reinforced poly(phthalazinone ether sulfone ketone) (PPESK) composite were investigated by several characterization methods, including XPS, SEM, signal fiber tensile strength, interlaminar shear strength, and water absorption. After the air DBD plasma treatment at a power density of 41.4 W/cm³, XPS analysis showed that some polar functional groups were introduced on the PBO fiber surface, especially the emergence of a new oxygen‐containing group (?O–C = O group). SEM observations revealed that the air DBD plasma treatment had a great influence on surface morphologies of the PBO fiber, while the signal fiber tensile strength results showed only a small decline of 5.9% for the plasma‐treated fiber. Meanwhile, interlaminar shear strength value of PBO/PPESK composite was increased to 44.71 MPa by 34.5% and water absorption of the composite decreased from 0.46% for the untreated specimen to 0.27%. The results showed that the air DBD plasma treatment can effectively improve the properties of the PBO fiber surface and the PBO/PPESK composite interface. Results obtained from the above analyses also showed that both the fiber surface and the composite interface performance would be reduced when an undue plasma discharge power density was applied.

Aging behavior of PBO fibers and PBO‐fiber‐reinforced PPESK composite after oxygen plasma treatment

Aging behavior of poly(p‐phenylene benzobisoxazole) (PBO) fibers and PBO‐fiber‐reinforced poly(phthalazinone ether sulfone ketone) (PPESK) composites after oxygen plasma treatment was investigated. Surface chemical composition, surface roughness and surface morphologies of oxygen‐plasma‐treated PBO fibers before and after aging in air for 1, 3, 5 and 10 days were analyzed by XPS and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The effects of aging on the material were examined by interlaminar shear strength (ILSS) and water absorption measurements. The results indicate that the major aging behavior of the fibers and the composite appeared in the first few days after oxygen plasma treatment, whereas minor aging effects were observed with prolonged aging.

Tribological properties of poly(phthalazione ether sulfone ketone) composites reinforced with glass fabric modified by graphene oxide depositing

In this paper, by electrophoretic deposition of graphene oxide (GO) on the surface of high‐strength glass fabric, a new fabric/poly(phthalazione ether sulfone ketone) (PPESK) composites material was successfully fabricated. The effects of GO on the interfacial adhesion, interlaminar shear strength, and tribological properties of the composites were investigated. Because of the addition of GO, the interlaminar shear strength of the composites was enhanced by 36.04%. Besides, the scanning electron microscope observation revealed that the interfacial adhesion between PPESK matrix and glass fabric was greatly improved. Attributing to the good interfacial adhesion, the wear‐resistance of the fabric/PPESK composite was greatly enhanced. Moreover, it can be found that the failure location transferred from the interface to the matrix after GO deposition.     

Sulfonated carbon nanotubes/sulfonated poly(ether sulfone ether ketone ketone) composites for polymer electrolyte membranes

A series of composite membranes consisting of sulfonated carbon nanotubes (sCNTs) and sulfonated poly(ether sulfone ether ketone ketone) were successfully fabricated via the solution casting method. The chemical structure, as well as the long‐term stability of the sCNTs in different solvents, was investigated by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) analysis and solubility experiment, respectively. The morphology, tensile strength, proton conductivity, and methanol permeability of the composite membranes were also investigated. The scanning electron microscope (SEM) observation indicated the good dispersion of the carbon nanotubes in polymer matrix as well as the strong interfacial bonding between the sulfonated poly(ether sulfone ether ketone ketone) (SPESEKK) matrix and sCNTs. The addition of either pristine carbon nanotubes or modified carbon nanotubes significantly enhanced the tensile strength of the SPESEKK membrane. The proton conductivity of the SPESEKK membrane increased while the methanol permeability decreased as the sCNTs content increased, showing a strong interaction between the modified nanotubes and SPESEKK.

Synthesis,curing and properties of poly(phthalazione ether sulfone ketone) copolymers crosslinked by click chemistry

Functionalized poly(phthalazinone ether sulfone ketone) was synthesized by successive chloromethylation and azidation, followed by curing reaction with the propargyl end-groups of various molecular weight crosslinking agents in the presence of Cu(Ⅰ) catalyst via the azide-alkyne click reaction. The influences of the chain length of crosslinking agents on the poly(phthalazinone ether sulfone ketone) system were studied. FTIR and DSC tests demonstrated certain crosslinking by azide-alkyne reaction with the formation of triazole ring. DSC results showed that curing temperature shifted to lower temperatures considerably in the presence of Cu(Ⅰ) catalyst. TGA showed cured polymers were of much higher thermal stability, including higher thermal decomposition temperatures and higher char-yielding properties. After being cured, the polymers became insoluble in organic solvents and the gel fraction of the cured polymers exceeded 71%. Wide-angle X-ray diffraction results indicated there was a short distance order in the poly(ether sulfone)(PES) main chain except for the azido methyl poly(phthalazinone ether sulfone ketone) and 4,4'-bis(2-propynyloxy) biphenyl( AMPPESK-BP) system.

Effects of plasma treatment of carbon fibers on interfacial properties of BMI resin composites

High performance continuous fiber surface modification by inductively coupled RF plasma (ICP) and dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) low temperature plasma were conducted. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and other analytical testing methods systematically studied plasma treatment time, discharge power, discharge pressure, etc, on fiber surface state, surface composition, and surface shape changes in the appearance and wetting properties. The results show that after plasma treatment the surface of the fiber is grafted with a large number of polar functional groups such as carboxyl groups and hydroxyl groups. The surface roughness increases, the surface free energy increases, and the fiber wetting property is significantly improved, resulting in improvement in interlaminar shear strength (ILSS) between the fiber and the resin matrix. Finally, the surfaces of the fibers and its relationship with interfacial properties of fiber reinforced bismaleimide composites are also discussed.

Changes of surface chemical structure and composition of phenolphthalein poly(ether sulfone) in different radiations

To understand the different action mechanisms of space irradiation on polymers, phenolphthalein poly(ether sulfone) (PES‐C) blocks were irradiated by electrons and atomic oxygen. The changes in surface chemical structure and composition of PES‐C in different radiations were studied by attenuated total‐reflection FTIR (FTIR‐ATR) and XPS. It was found that PES‐C was prone to be influenced by space irradiation. Electron and atomic oxygen irradiation can destroy the molecular chain of PES‐C and result in changes of surface chemical composition of the polymer. But due to the different nature of the radiation sources, electron irradiation induced the carbonization of the polymer surface, while atomic oxygen irradiation resulted in the oxidation of the polymer surface. Besides this, the sulfone structure was reduced or oxidized depending on the nature of the radiation sources. So, different radiation sources might influence the surface chemical structure and composition of polymers differently. Copyright © 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Direct copolymerization of sulfonated poly(phthalazinone arylene ether)s for proton‐exchange‐membrane materials

Sulfonated poly(phthalazinone ether ketone) (SPPEK) copolymers and sulfonated poly(phthalazinone ether sulfone) (SPPES) copolymers containing pendant sodium sulfonate groups were prepared by direct copolymerization. The reaction of disodium 3,3′‐disulfonate‐4,4′‐difluorobenzophenone (SDFB‐Na), 4,4′‐difluorobenzophenone (DFB), and 4‐(4‐hydroxyphenyl)‐1(2H)‐phthalazinone (DHPZ) at 170 °C in N‐methyl‐2‐pyrrolidione containing anhydrous potassium carbonate gave SPPEKs. SPPESs were similarly obtained with 3,3′‐disulfonate‐4,4′‐difluorophenyl sulfone, 4‐fluorophenyl sulfone (DFS), and DHPZ as monomers. The sulfonic acid groups, being on deactivated positions of the polymer backbone, were expected to be hydrolytically more stable than postsulfonated polymers. Fourier transform infrared and ¹H NMR were used to characterize the structures and degrees of sulfonation of the sulfonated polymers. Membrane films of SPPEKs with SDFB‐Na/DFB molar feed ratios of up to 60/40 and SPPESs with sulfonated 4‐fluorophenyl sulfone/DFS molar feed ratios of up to 50/50 were cast from N,N‐dimethylacetamide polymer solutions. Membrane films in acid form were then obtained by the treatment of the sodium‐form membrane films in 2 N sulfuric acid at room temperature. An increase in the number of sulfonate groups in the copolymers resulted in an increased glass‐transition temperature and enhanced membrane hydrophilicity. The sodium‐form copolymers were thermally more stable than their acid forms. The proton conductivities of the acid‐form copolymers with sulfonated monomer/unsulfonated monomer molar feed ratios of 0.5 and 0.6 were higher than 10^?2 S/cm and increased with temperature; they were less temperature‐dependent than those of the postsulfonated products. SPPESH‐50 showed higher conductivity than the corresponding postsulfonated poly(phthalazinone ether sulfone). © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem 41: 2731–2742, 2003
