AbstractThe interfacial interaction between the fiber and matrix is the most important factor which influences the performance of the carbon fiber-epoxy composites. In this study, the graphitic surface of the carbon fibers was modified with graphene oxide nanomaterials by using a spray coating technique which is an easy, cheap, and quick method. The carbon fiber-reinforced epoxy matrix composites were prepared by hand layup technique using neat carbon fibers and 0.5, 1 and 2% by weight graphene oxide (GO) modified carbon fibers. As a result of SEM analysis, it was observed that GO particles were homogeneously coated on the surface of the carbon fibers. Furthermore, Young's modulus increased from 35.14 to 43.40 GPa, tensile strength increased from 436 to 672 MPa, and the elongation at break was maintained around 2% even in only 2% GO addition.

Newer manufacturing techniques were invented and introduced during the last few decades; some of them were increasingly popular due to their enhanced advantages and ease of manufacturing over the conventional processes. Polymer composite material such as glass, carbon and Kevlar fiber reinforced composite are popular in high performance and light weight applications such as aerospace and automobile fields. This research has been done by reinforcing the matrix (epoxy) resin with two kinds of the reinforcement fibers. One weight fractions were used (20%) wt., Epoxy reinforced with chopped carbon fiber and second reinforcement was epoxy reinforced with hybrid reinforcements Kevlar fiber and improved one was the three laminates Kevlar fiber and chopped carbon fibers reinforced epoxy resin. After preparation of composite materials some of the mechanical properties have been studied. Four different fiber loading, i.e., 0 wt. %, 20wt. % CCF, 20wt. % SKF, AND 20wt. %CCF + 20wt. % SKF were taken for evaluating the above said properties. The thermal and mechanical properties, i.e., hardness load, impact strength, flexural strength (bending load), and thermal conductivity are determined to represent the behaviour of composite structures with that of fibers loading. The results show that with the increase in fiber loading the mechanical properties of carbon fiber reinforced epoxy composites increases as compared to short carbon fiber reinforced epoxy composites except in case of hardness, short carbon fiber reinforced composites shows better results. Similarly, flexural strength test, Impact test, and Brinell hardness test the results show the flexural strength, impact strength of the hybrid composites values were increased with existence of Kevlar fibers, while the hardness was decrease. But the reinforcement with carbon fibers increases the hardness and decreases other tests.

The elevated temperature resistance and even fire resistance of carbon fiber-reinforced polymer composites were critical concerns in many applications. These properties of a carbon fiber-reinforced polymer depend not only on the degradation of the polymer matrix but also on that of the carbon fibers under elevated temperatures. In this study, influences of elevated temperatures (by 700°C for 30 min) in air on the mechanical properties and microstructures of a carbon fiber were investigated experimentally. It was found that the tensile strength and modulus as well as the diameters of the carbon fibers were reduced remarkably when the treatment temperatures exceeded 500°C. At the same time, the content of the structurally ordered carbonaceous components on the surface of carbon fibers and the graphite microcrystal size were reduced, while the graphite interlayer spacing ( d002) was enhanced. The deteriorated tensile modulus was attributed to the reduced graphite microcrystal size and the reduced thickness of the skin layer of the carbon fiber, while the degraded tensile strength was mainly attributed to the weakened cross-linking between the graphite planes.

Preserving the integrity of carbon fibers when recycling carbon-fiber-reinforced plastics (CFRPs) has been unfeasible due to the harsh reaction conditions required to remove epoxy resin matrixes, which adversely affect the properties of carbon fibers. We establish a practicable and environmentally friendly reclamation strategy for carbon fibers. Carbon fibers are recycled from waste CFRPs by an electrochemical catalytic reaction with the assistance of phosphotungstic acid (PA), which promotes the depolymerization of diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A/ethylenediamine (DGEBA/EDA) epoxy resin. The removal rate, mechanical strength, and microstructure of the recycled carbon fibers are analyzed to explore the mechanism of the electrochemical treatment. The influence of three factors—current density, PA concentration, and reaction time—are studied via an orthogonal method. Range analysis and variance analysis are conducted to investigate the significance of the factors. The optimal conditions are determined accordingly. The underlying CFRP degradation mechanism is also investigated.

This paper investigated the fracture behavior of the unavoidable breakage of carbon fibers and fiber orientation of short carbon fiber reinforced polycarbonate composite in injection process. In this experiment, short carbon fiber mixed compound of 1mm, 3mm, 5mm, 7mm length with 10wt.%, 15wt.%, 20wt.% in polycarbonate for injection molding were produced through the extruder. The dumbbell specimens for tensile evaluation were made by injection molding. The parent specimens were made by double gate method, the weld specimens were made by single gate method which was controlled by inserting a stopper through the runner of the mold cavity. Short carbon fiber reinforced PC composite was evaluated by micro-CT with regard to the particle size of short fiber with a diversified quantitative analysis through entire process of the injection process in composite. The quantitative distribution of fiber orientation was also examined by micro-CT with regard to normal direction or anisotropy. Weld line of short carbon fibers reinforced PC composite weaken the bonding strength by 50% compared to parent materials because the weld line is composed with concentrated anisotropy orientation of short carbon fiber in weld line. Evaluation of the mechanical properties of the injection specimens group was utilized by universal tensile strength tester. In addition, fracture surface of parent and weld materials was investigated by a SEM.

This paper aims to study the effect of different surface coatings of carbon fiber on the thermal, mechanical, and morphological properties of carbon fiber reinforced poly(phenylene sulfide) composites. To this end, unsized and different surface-coated carbon fibers were used. Prepared poly(phenylene sulfide)/carbon fiber composites were characterized by using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, thermogravimetric analysis, tensile test, dynamic mechanical analysis, and scanning electron microscopy. Tensile strength values of the surfaced-coated carbon fibers reinforced poly(phenylene sulfide) composites are higher than the unsized carbon fiber reinforced poly(phenylene sulfide) composite. The highest tensile strength and modulus values were observed for the polyurethane-coated carbon fiber reinforcement. Dynamic mechanical analysis studies indicated that polyurethane-coated carbon fiber reinforced composite exhibited higher storage modulus and better adhesion than the others. Differential scanning calorimetry results show that melting and glass transition temperature of the composites did not change significantly. Scanning electron microscopic studies showed that polyurethane and epoxy-coated carbon fibers exhibited better adhesion with poly(phenylene sulfide).
