For small curvatures of a graphitic sheet, carbon atoms can maintain their preferred sp2 bonding while allowing the sheet to have various three-dimensional geometries, which may have exotic structural and electronic properties. In addition the fivefold rings will lead to a positive Gaussian curvature in the hexagonal network, and the sevenfold rings cause a negative one. By combining these sevenfold and fivefold rings with sixfold rings, it is possible to construct complicated carbon sp2 networks. Because it is much easier to introduce pentagons and heptagons into the single-layer hexagonal network than into the multilayer network, the complicated morphologies would be more common in the single-layer graphite structures. In this contribution, we report the observation and characterization of a new material of monolayer graphitic structure by electron diffraction, HREM, EELS.The synthesis process used in this study is reported early. We utilized a composite anode of graphite and copper for arc evaporation in helium.

Functionalized polyacrylonitrile (PAN) nanofibers were used in the present investigation to enhance the fracture behavior of carbon epoxy composite in order to prevent delamination if any crack propagates in the resin rich area. The main intent of this investigation was to analyze the efficiency of PAN nanofiber as a reinforcing agent for the carbon fiber-based epoxy structural composite. The composites were fabricated with stacked unidirectional carbon fibers and the PAN powder was functionalized with glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) and then used as reinforcement. The fabricated composites’ fracture behavior was analyzed through a double cantilever beam test and the energy release rate of the composites was investigated. The neat PAN and functionalized PAN-reinforced samples had an 18% and a 50% increase in fracture energy, respectively, compared to the control composite. In addition, the samples reinforced with functionalized PAN nanofibers had 27% higher interlaminar strength compared to neat PAN-reinforced composite, implying more efficient stress transformation as well as stress distribution from the matrix phase (resin-rich area) to the reinforcement phase (carbon/phase) of the composites. The enhancement of fracture toughness provides an opportunity to alleviate the prevalent issues in laminated composites for structural operations and facilitate their adoption in industries for critical applications.

Walled Carbon Nanotubes

The deformation of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) under large axial strain is studied by a geometrical mapping method. The interactions between atoms in carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are described by Tersoff-Brenner potential. Results show the strain energy depends on chirality but hardly on tubes’ radii. For graphitic sheet under large axial deformation, the elastic moduli decrease with the increase of engineering strain under tension. The modulus reaches the peak value as the axial engineering strain reaches -0.08 for armchair pattern and -0.15 for zigzag pattern under compression.

Before And After

In an effort to study an alternative approach to make graphene from graphene oxide (GO), exposure of GO to high-energy X-ray radiation has been performed. X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and atomic force microscopy (AFM) have been used to characterize GO before and after irradiation. Results indicate that GO exposed to high-energy radiation is converted to an amorphous carbon phase that is conductive.

The article explores the structure, morphology and conductive properties of composite material SiO2 – C using XRD, SAXS, low-temperature nitrogen adsorption, and impedance spectroscopy methods. It is set that SiO2 – C composite obtained by thermolytic decomposition of D-lactose, previously chemisorbed on fumed silica nanoparticles surface, has an open porous structure, in which mesopores of 6-12 nm in size are dominate. At weight ratio SiO2/C = 5/1 nanocrystallites of carbon phase in form of lamellar sheets of 0,4 × 0,4 × 5,0 nm3 in size contact with entire silica surface that results in composite material conductivity is 49 Оhm-1·m-1.

Chemical activation of carbons is usually assigned to an oxidative and dehydrating nature of activating agents. We herein suggest that activating agents rather act as high temperature solvents and the porosity is developed by carbon phase separation.
