In this study, halloysite nanotubes (HNTs), an environmentally friendly inorganic nanomaterial, was added to epoxy matrix glass and basalt fiber reinforced plastics (GFRP and BFRP) by heat treatment of HNTs with crystalline and amorphous structure at [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. Their interfacial bonding strength and effect of HNTs before and after carbonization by flame were analyzed. We found that the HNT/epoxy formed a physical barrier on the surface because of the char generated by carbonization. The barrier showed excellent thermal stability and limiting oxygen index in BFRP. The flexural strength after carbonization was low in the amorphous 1000HTHNT-BFRP with strong interfacial bonding. In other words, the morphological structure of the HNTs helped the improvement of the interfacial bonding strength; hence, the reinforcing effect of the HNTs on the thermal stability and mechanical strength before and after carbonization can be controlled.

For the characteristic that the mechanical properties of resin composite are lower than cast iron, steel fibers are used to improve its properties in this paper. A weak interfacial bonding strength between steel fibers and resin indicates that steel fibers’ property cannot perform well in the polymer. In order to improve the interfacial bonding strength, four methods of surface treatment, phosphating, acid pickling, oxidation, and coupling are applied to steel fibers, and the corresponding pull-off tests are carried out to compare with untreated steel fibers. Research results show that the maximum interfacial bonding strength is increased by 45.1% after coupling treatment.
