AbstractSurface energies of carbon fibres at different levels at surface treatment have been determined by a wetting force technique and related to fibre-matrix adhesion in carbon fibre reinforced PEEK composite. The effect of oxidative surface treatment on the surface free energy is detailed, along with the changes in surface oxygen and nitrogen content, as determined by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The work of adhesion has been calculated for the carbon fibres and thermoplastic, which correlate well with experimental determination of interfacial strength. The technique can therefore be used to predict adhesion levels in fibre reinforced composites.

Multi-fibre microcomposites were used to study the influence of fibre/matrix adhesion on the fracture process of composites in uniaxial tension. In addition to in-situ microscopic observations, results were quantitatively described using an interaction criterion. In the case of surface treated carbon fibres, fibre-fibre interaction or so-called coordinated fibre failure takes place at inter-fibre spacings of less than nine fibre diameters. Moreover, it was found that the level of fibre surface treatment, i.e. the amount of debonding, significantly influences the amount of fibre-fibre interaction.

Although Natural Fibres have various potential and advantages such as lower in weight, embodied energy and toxicity but their drawbacks are provided relentless competition between natural and synthetics fibres. Intrinsically, Natural Fibres are hydrophilic that is leaded to poor resistance to moisture and incompatible to hydrophobic polymer matrix. This incompatibility of natural fibres results in poor fibre/matrix interface which in turn leads to reduce mechanical properties of the composites. This study try to litreature some methods of chemical treatment or surface modification of Natural Fibres for improving this drawback of natural fibres. The objective of this research is fungi treatment as Green Surface Treatment that is indicate to environmental friendlier process. The use of fungi can provide low cost, highly efficient and environmentally friendly alternatives to natural fibre surface treatment.
