Vertically Aligned

Vertically aligned arrays of zinc oxide nanowires can serve as an adjustable interface for fiber composites through controllable synthesis techniques. When grown on carbon fiber surfaces as a fiber-matrix interphase of a composite, ZnO nanowires increase the surface area of interaction between fiber and matrix, and thus cause a greater interfacial shear strength of the composite. The ability to control the interfacial strength of this interphase through tailored morphologies enables the design of composite systems to specific applications. This report focuses on the controlled growth of ZnO nanowires and correlates the relationship between nanowire length and interfacial shear strength of the composite. Previous studies have focused on the effects of nanowire morphology on the interfacial strength; however, the data was limited to nanowire lengths < 1μm due to problems with nanowire uniformity and cleanliness [1]. Here, a new synthesis method is applied to the growth of zinc oxide nanowires on carbon fiber that enables the production of long, vertically aligned, uniform nanowires while maintaining the tensile properties of the fiber. The nanowires created by the new method are then compared to previous method nanowires by scanning electron microscopy imaging. Lastly, the interfacial shear strength of the fiber/polymer matrix composite is tested using single fiber fragmentation and correlated to the nanowire length of each method.

Modified Epoxy

Rubber-modified epoxy resins are used as a matrix material for glass and carbon-fiber composites. Mechanical properties of fiber reinforced composites depend on the interfacial shear strength between the reinforced fiber and the matrix resin. This study is focused on the interfacial shear strength in the reinforced carbon fiber and rubber-modified epoxy resin system. To evaluate interfacial shear strength between the fiber and the resin, pull-out test is performed using a microdroplet method. Based on experimental results, numerical analysis was also simulated. It is concluded that the interfacial shear strength of carbon fiber/unmodified epoxy resin system was higher than that of carbon fiber/modified epoxy resin system. The reason for decreased the interfacial shear strength of rubber-modified system is that contractive forces in neat epoxy resin acting on carbon fiber were less than those in rubber-modified epoxy resin system.

This study focuses on the simultaneous stiffening and percolating characteristics of the interphase section in polymer carbon nanotubes (CNTs) systems (PCNTs) using two advanced models of tensile modulus and strength. The interphase, as a third part around the nanoparticles, influences the mechanical features of such systems. The forecasts agree well with the tentative results, thus validating the advanced models. A CNT radius of >40 nm and CNT length of <5 μm marginally improve the modulus by 70%, while the highest modulus development of 350% is achieved with the thinnest nanoparticles. Furthermore, the highest improvement in nanocomposite’s strength (350%) is achieved with the CNT length of 12 μm and interfacial shear strength of 8 MPa. Generally, the highest ranges of the CNT length, interphase thickness, interphase modulus and interfacial shear strength lead to the most desirable mechanical features.
