The aim of the present study was to investigate and compare the mechanical properties of untreated and chemically modified Borassus fiber–reinforced epoxy composites. Composites were prepared by the hand lay-up process by reinforcing Borassus fibers with epoxy matrix. To improve the fiber-matrix adhesion properties, alkali (NaOH) and alkali combined with silane (3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane) treatment of the fiber surface was carried out. Examinations through Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were conducted to investigate the structural and physical properties of the Borassus fibers. Tensile properties such as modulus and strength of the composites made with chemically modified and untreated Borassus fibers were studied using a universal testing machine. Based on the experimental results, it was found that the tensile properties of the Borassus-reinforced epoxy composites were significantly improved as compared with the neat epoxy. It was also found that the fiber treated with a combination of alkali and silane exhibited superior mechanical properties to alkali-treated and untreated fiber composites. The nature of the fiber/matrix interface was examined through SEM of cryo-fractured samples. Chemical resistance of composites was also found to be improved with chemically modified fiber composites.  相似文献

In this study, the reinforcing mechanism of amine functionalized on carbon fibers (CFs) has been precisely discussed, and the differences between aliphatic and aromatic compounds have been illustrated. Polyacrylonitrile‐based CFs were functionalized with ethylenediamine, 4,4‐diaminodiphenyl sulphone, and p‐aminobenzoic acid (PAB), and CF‐reinforced epoxy composites were prepared. The structural and surface characteristics of the functionalized CFs were investigated using X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT‐IR), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Mechanical properties in terms of tensile and flexural strengths and moduli were studied. The FT‐IR results confirm the success in bonding amines on the CF surface. After treatment of CFs, the oxygen and nitrogen contents as well as the N/C ratio showed an increase. XPS results provided evidence of the chemical reaction during functionalization, rather than being physically coated on the CF surface. Chemical modification of CF with diamines led to considerable enhancement in compatibility of CF filaments and epoxy resin, and remarkable improvements were seen in both tensile and flexural properties of the reinforced composites. SEM micrographs also confirmed the improvement of interface adhesion between the modified CFs and epoxy matrix. Finally, it can be concluded that PAB is a promising candidate to functionalize CF in order to improve interfacial properties of CF/epoxy composites.

The thermal expansion behaviors of neat epoxy resin and carbon fiber/epoxy unidirectional (UD) composites were experimentally and numerically studied in this paper. The dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), thermogravimetric analysis (TG), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermal conductivity measurement were used to measure the thermo-mechanical properties of epoxy resin at different temperatures. The dilatometer was used to measure the thermal strains and linear CTEs of neat epoxy resin and UD composites. In addition, a mesoscale finite element model based on the periodic temperature and displacement boundary conditions was presented to analyze the thermal expansion behaviors of UD composites. The resin-voids representative volume element (RVE) was used to calculate the thermo-mechanical properties of several kinds of resin-voids mixed matrix. From the results it can be found that the glass transition temperature of epoxy resin, porosity and fiber orientation angle have significant effects on the thermal expansion behaviors of UD composites. The mesoscale finite element analyses (FEA) have obvious advantages than various existing analysis models by comparing their predictive results. The distributions of thermal displacement, thermal stress and thermal strain were extracted between the carbon fiber, resin-voids mixed matrix and their interface, and also between the front and back surfaces of the loading direction, to further investigate thermal expansion structure effects of UD composites. This paper revealed that the mesoscale FEA based on periodic temperature and displacement boundary conditions can be also used for thermal expansion researches of other complex structure composites.  相似文献

The carbon fiber (CF) surface plays a critical role in the performance of CF composite materials. Adipic acid modified epoxy resin potassium (AAEK) prepared with epoxy resin and adipic acid, and KOH was employed as the CF sizing agent. Then, series of surface properties of AAEK‐treated carbon fiber (CF‐AAEK) including surface charge, morphology, and groups were characterized by using Faraday cup, friction coefficient gauge, atomic force microscopy, X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and thermogravimetry. The results indicated that the dispersion coefficient of CF‐AAEK was increased by 1.72 times and there were synergistic effects for the dispersion of short CFs during the sizing treatment process with AAEK. In addition, the flexural strength of treated short CF composite proved to increase by 168%, which evaluated that the better CF dispersion in the matrix was a critical factor for the mechanical property improvement of short CF‐AAEK/epoxy resin composites.  相似文献

Mechanical properties of carbon fiber (CF) and carbon nanotube (CNT)‐filled thermoplastic high‐density polyethylene (HDPE) composites were studied with particular interest on the effects of filler content and fiber surface treatment by coupling agent. Surface‐treated CF‐filled HDPE composites increased their tensile strength and impact strength, which is further increased with the addition of CNT. SEM showed that CNT‐coating‐treated CF‐HDPE composites show better dispersion of the filler into the matrix, which results in better interfacial adhesion between the filler and the matrix.

Enhancement of thermal properties of epoxy resins was achieved by incorporation of polybenzimidazole (PBI) fibermats filled with carbon nanomaterials, prepared by the solution electrospinning technique. Different type of carbon nanostructures (carbon nanotubes, graphite flakes, graphene nanoplatelets and carbon black) were compared as fillers in polybenzimidazole fibers. The carbon-PBI-fibermats showed remarkable thermal transport properties and therefore, they were studied as thermal reinforcement material for epoxy composites. Mechanical and thermal properties of produced composites were evaluated and the effectiveness of different types of carbon fillers examined. Results showed that the produced carbon filled fibermats can be used effectively as a thermal reinforcing material in epoxy resins, offering several advantages.  相似文献

Grafting nanoscale reinforcement onto macrolevel carbon fiber (CF) surface is an efficient approach to improve interfacial strength and properties of composites. In the research, 2 different polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (POSS)/CF hybrids have been prepared by a facile 2‐step method. Carbon fiber was grafted with aniline groups by aryl diazonium reaction using water as the reaction medium, and then separately functionalized with glycidyllsobutyl POSS (EP0418) or glycidyl POSS (EP0409) by the chemical bonding. Characterization of fiber surface structures before and after modification confirmed the covalent bonding nature between both kinds of POSS and CF. Atomic force microscopy images showed the uniform distributions of EP0418 or EP0409 modified on the fiber surface and the similar enhanced degree of surface roughness (89.3 and 88.7 nm). Dynamic contact angle tests showed that EP0409‐grafted CF (CF‐g‐EP0409) had lower contact angles and higher surface free energy than those of EP0418‐grafted CF (CF‐g‐EP0418). Interfacial strength and hydrothermal aging resistance of composites enhanced significantly after POSS modification, especially for CF‐g‐EP0409 composites. Interfacial reinforcing mechanisms of composites reinforced with 2 different POSS/CF hybrids have also been analyzed and compared.  相似文献

This study investigated the dynamic mechanical properties of hybrid intraply carbon/E-glass epoxy composites with different orientations and stacking sequences under different loading conditions with increasing temperature. A neat epoxy and five various hybrid composites such as Carbon (0°)/E-glass (90°), Carbon (45°)/E-glass (135°), Carbon (90°)/E-glass (0°), Carbon/E-glass (alternating layer), and Carbon/E-glass (alternating layer 45°) were manufactured. Three-point bending test and dynamic mechanical test were conducted to understand the flexural modulus and viscoelastic behavior (storage modulus, loss modulus, and loss tangent) of the composites. Dynamic mechanical test was performed with the dual cantilever method, at four different frequencies (1, 5, 10, and 20 Hz) and temperatures ranging from 30 to 150°C. The experimental results of storage modulus, loss modulus, and loss tangents were compared with the theoretical findings of neat epoxy and various hybrid composites. The glass transition temperature (Tg) increased with the increase in frequency. A linear fit of the natural log of frequency to the inverse of absolute temperature was plotted in the activation energy estimation. The interphase damping (tanδi) between plies and the strength indicator (Si) of the hybrid composites were estimated. It was observed that the neat epoxy had more insufficient storage and loss modulus and a high loss tangent at all the frequencies whereas hybrid composites had high storage and loss modulus and a low loss tangent for all the frequencies. Compared with other hybrid composites, Carbon (90°)/E-glass (0°) had higher strength and activation energy. The result of reinforcement of hybrid fiber in neat epoxy significantly increases the material's strength and stability at higher temperatures whereas decreasing free molecular movement.  相似文献

The mechanical properties of carbon fiber composites depend on the interfacial strength between fiber and epoxy matrix. Different poly (amido amine) (PAMAM) dendrimers were grafted onto carbon fiber to improve the interfacial strength of the resulting composites. Functional groups on the carbon fiber surface were examined by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The surface morphology of the resulting materials was characterized by scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscope. The characterization results revealed that PAMAM dendrimers were chemically grafted onto the surface of carbon fiber. More importantly, the mechanical properties of the resulting composites were enhanced owing to the presence of sufficient functional groups on the carbon fiber surface. In addition, after PAMAM containing chair conformations were grafted, the interlaminar shear strength had the highest increase of 53.13%, higher than that of the fiber grafted with PAMAM containing terminated linear amine. This work provides an alternative approach to enhance the mechanical properties of fiber composites by controlling the interface between fiber and epoxy matrix.  相似文献

Interfacial properties and microfailure modes of electrodeposition (ED)-treated carbon fiber-reinforced polyetherimide (PEI) toughened epoxy composite were investigated using microdroplet test and the measurement of surface wettability. ED was performed to improve the interfacial shear strength (IFSS). As PEI content increased, IFSS increased due to enhanced toughness and plastic deformation of PEI. In the untreated case, IFSS increased with adding PEI content, and the IFSS of the pure PEI matrix showed the highest. On the other hand, for the ED-treated case IFSS increased with PEI content with rather low improvement rate. In the untreated case, neat epoxy resin appeared brittle microfailure mode, whereas the pure PEI matrix exhibited a more likely ductile microfailure mode. In the ED-treated case, neat epoxy exhibited a more ductile fracture than that of the untreated case. Critical surface tension and polar surface free energy of ED-treated carbon fiber was higher than those of the untreated fiber. The work of adhesion between fiber and matrix was not directly proportional to IFSS for both the untreated and ED-treated cases. The matrix toughness might contribute to IFSS more likely than the surface wettability. Interfacial properties of the epoxy-PEI composite can be affected efficiently by both the control of matrix toughness and ED treatment.  相似文献

The polymerization of rigid rod polymer precursors in a reactive matrix precursor, which is later cured in the mold, constitutes the in situ process. A poly-azomethine (PAM) was used as the rigid rod molecule. The resin used was an epoxy. We discuss the prediction of mechanical properties using micromechanics equations for chopped fiber composites. The chemistry used to synthesize the rigid rod polymer PAM in the epoxy precursor is reviewed. Approaches to better control the cure of these epoxy systems through cure kinetics and cure rheology studies completes the thermoset in situ molecular composite process. There was a 71% increase in tensile modulus in comparison to that of the neat epoxy resin. Molecular modeling simulations and continuum mechanics are used to help understand these findings. PAM/epoxy systems were used as a matrix material in the fabrication of unidirectional glass fiber/(PAM/epoxy) structural composites. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.  相似文献

The oxidation-reduction and pre-irradiation induced methods were employed to study the effect of acrylic acid modification on the wetting and adsorption ability of carbon fiber (CF) in epoxy solution and the interfacial properties of CF/epoxy. Systematic experimental work was conducted to determine the surface topography, surface energy, surface chemical composition, absorbability and tensile strength of carbon fibers and interfacial adhesion of CF/epoxy before and after modification. The roughness, surface energy, amount of containing-oxygen functional groups and wetting ability were all found to increase significantly after modifications. The tensile strength of carbon fibers was improved marginally by γ-ray pre-irradiation while was decreased little by oxidation-reduction modification. Consequently, the surface modifications of carbon fibers via both oxidation-reduction and pre-irradiation led to an improvement (more than 15%) of the interlaminar shear strength of CF/epoxy composites. The mechanisms of interfacial improvement of modified CF/epoxy composites are proposed.  相似文献

Polyamide-6 (PA6)/carbon fiber (CF) composites were prepared by melt-extrusion via continuous fiber fed during extruding. The mechanical, thermal properties, and crystallization behavior of PA6/CF composites were investigated. It was found that the tensile modulus and strength of the composites were increased with the addition of CF, while their elongations at break were decreased. Scanning electron microscopy observation on the fracture surfaces showed the fine dispersion of CF and strong interfacial adhesion between fibers and matrix. Dynamic mechanical analysis results showed that the storage modulus of PA6/CF composites was improved with the addition of CF. Non-isothermal crystallization analysis showed that the CF plays a role as nucleating agent in PA6 matrix, and the α-form crystalline structure was favorable in the PA6/CF composites, as confirmed from the X-ray diffraction analysis. A trans-crystallization layer around CF could be observed by polarizing optical microscopy, which proved the nucleation effect of carbon fiber surface on the crystallization of PA6. The thermal stability of PA6/CF composites was also enhanced.  相似文献

In this paper, the surface properties of polyacrylonitrile‐based carbon fibers is improved by electron‐beam (EB) irradiation in maleic anhydride/acetone solution at 100, 150, 200 and 150 KGy. Experimental study of this paper is carried out to identify surface topography, surface chemical composition and functional groups, adsorption ability and interface properties of CF/epoxy composites. The results reveal that the roughness of carbon fiber surface is increased obviously after modification by EB irradiation grafting technology. The ratio value of O/C and the relative content of oxygen functional groups on fiber surface are improved effectively, comparing with the unmodified carbon fiber. Besides, adsorption of carbon fiber on epoxy and the mechanical performance of CF/epoxy composites are clearly enhanced after irradiation grafting modification.

The mechanical strength and modulus of chopped carbon fiber (CF)‐reinforced polybenzoxazine composites were investigated by changing the length of CFs. Tensile, compressive, and flexural properties were investigated. The void content was found to be higher for the short fiber composites. With increase in fiber length, tensile strength increased and optimized at around 17 mm fiber length whereas compressive strength exhibited a continuous diminution. The flexural strength too increased with fiber length and optimized at around 17 mm fiber length. The increase in strength of composites with fiber length is attributed to the enhancement in effective contact area of fibers with the matrix. The experimental results showed that there was about 350% increase in flexural strength and 470% increase in tensile strength of the composites with respect to the neat polybenzoxazine, while, compressive properties were adversely affected. The composites exhibited an optimum increase of about 800% in flexural modulus and 200% in tensile modulus. Enhancing the fiber length, leads to fiber entanglement in the composites, resulted in increased plastic deformation at higher strain. Multiple branch matrix shear, debonded fibers and voids were the failures visualized in the microscopic analyses. Defibrillation has been exhibited by all composites irrespective of fiber length. Fiber debonding and breaking were associated with short fibers whereas clustering and defibrillation were the major failure modes in long fiber composites. Increasing fiber loading improved the tensile and flexural properties until 50–60 wt% of fiber whereas the compressive property consistently decreased on fiber loading.

The interfacial compatibility of carbon fiber (CF) reinforced composites is the key factor to determine the comprehensive properties of the composites. The sizing agent plays an indispensable role between carbon fibers and matrix resins. Environmentally friendly hydrophilic sizing agent is is a hot research issue to be solved. In this work,the hydrophilic lignin-based sizing agent and carbon fiber reinforced polypropylene (PP) composites are prepared and studied. The lignin is ozonized to increase the reactive group. The obtained lignin reacts with epoxy group to prepare the oxidized organic solvent lignin based epoxy resin(OLBE). OLBE reacts with alcohol amine and carboxylic acid to obtain the hydrophilic lignin-based sizing agent. KH550 is further added to balance the hygroscopicity of sizing agent. Finally,an oxidized organic solvent lignin-based hydrophilic sizing agent(OLBEDK)with excellent stability was prepared. The CF treated with 2. 5% solid content OLBEDK was only 3. 0 mg. The ILSS,Flexural strength,Flexural modulus and Impact strength of CF/PP composites are increased by 50. 8%,34. 2%,53. 7% and 127. 8%, respectively,compared with those of CF/PP composites without sizing. This is attributed to the π-π conjugation between the benzene ring of lignin and the carbon six-membered ring of CF,and the physical entanglement between the alkyl chain of KH550 and the molecular chain of PP,which enhances the interfacial interaction between CF and PP effectively. © 2022, Science Press (China).

To improve the interfacial properties of carbon fibre-reinforced polymer composites, a surface treatment was used to cap cross-linked poly-itaconic acid onto carbon fibres via in-situ polymerization after itaconic acid grafting. The chemical composition of the modified carbon fiber (CF) surface was characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectral and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy. Scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy images showed that the poly-itaconic acid protective sheath was uniformly capped onto the CF surface and that the surface roughness was obviously enhanced. Chemical bonds also played a key role in the interfacial enhancement. The results showed that the interfacial shear strength of the composites with poly-itaconic acid on the carbon fibres (72.2 MPa) was significantly increased by 89.5% compared with that of the composites with pristine CF (38.1 MPa). Moreover, the poly-itaconic acid sheath promoted a slight increase in mono-fibre tensile strength. In addition, the interfacial mechanisms were also discussed. Meanwhile, the mechanical property of the functionalized CF/epoxy resin composites was also significantly improved.  相似文献

In this work, oil palm empty fruit bunch (EFB) and jute fibers were treated with 2-hydroxy ethyl acrylate (2-HEA) to improve interfacial bonding of oil palm EFB and jute fibers with epoxy matrix. Hybrid composites were fabricated by incorporation of modified oil palm EFB and jute fibers into an epoxy matrix by the hand lay-up technique. Mechanical (flexural and impact) and morphological properties of modified hybrid composites were measured. Results indicated that flexural and impact properties of modified fiber–reinforced hybrid composites improved as compared to untreated hybrid composites due to better fiber/matrix interfacial bonding, which was confirmed by scanning electron microscopy. We confirmed that treated oil palm/jute hybrid composite may be fabricated by advanced techniques such as resin transfer molding, extrusion, and injection molding for industrial applications in the automotive sector.  相似文献

The present work comparatively studied the modification effects of short carbon fiber (CF) on the mechanical properties and fretting wear behavior of ultra‐high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE)/CF composites. The interactions between CFs and UHMWPE interface were also investigated in detail. The results showed that, with the increase in fiber content, the compressive modulus and hardness of the composites increased, while its impact strength decreased. It was found that filling of CF can reduce the friction and wear of UHMWPE. In addition, the UHMWPE‐based composites reinforced with nitric acid‐treated CF exhibited better mechanical properties, lower friction coefficient, and higher wear resistance than those of untreated UHMWPE/CF composites. This was attributed to the improvement of interfacial adhesion and compatibility between CF and UHMWPE matrix caused by surface chemical modification of CF.
