The article presents the results of sizing of discrete carbon fibers with various substances and their effect on the properties of polyetherimide composites. As sizing agents, 1,3-diaminobenzene, 4,4'-dihydroxy-2,2-diphenylpropane, polyetherimide and oligoetherether sulfone were used. The study of physical and mechanical properties showed that all the substances used increase the properties of the carbon-filled composite based on polyetherimide. The highest mechanical properties are demonstrated by a composite containing carbon fibers treated with 1,3-diaminobenzene, which indicates improved compatibility of the filler and the polymer matrix and enhanced intermolecular interactions.

The recent development of carbon fiber sizing agent was introduced in this article. The sizing agent used in carbon fiber was synthesized at a temperature range of 55-60°C using epoxy resin and vinyl acetate as a monomer together, octyl phenol ethoxylated(OP-10) as the emulsion agent, ammonium peroxydisulfate as the solicitation agent and water as the dispersant. At the same time, the optimum composition, the optimum process condition and the effects affecting the emulsion stability were discussed. The characterizations were measured by Scanning Electron Microscopy and TG. The results show that the synthesis process is simple, low cost, less polution and remarkbably stable. The diameter of the particle is 1.8μm and the decomposition temperature is 260°C.

In this work, carbon fibers were sized with three different sizing agents in order to improve the performances of carbon fibers and the interface of carbon fibers composites. The surface characteristic was investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), at the same time, the single fiber strengths and weibull distributions were also studied in order to understand the effect of different sizing agents on carbon fibers. The interlaminar shear strength (ILSS) of the composites was also measured to study the effect of fiber coatings on the interface of the composites. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) was also used to analyze the element composition of carbon fiber modified by different sizing agents. This investigation shows that different sizing agents could give a different composition of surface functional group for carbon fiber, which is crucial to the interfacial performance of carbon fiber composites.

In our previous study we showed the the potential of using of sub-micro Alumina/Titanium (ALTi) particles as a multifunctional reinforcement which can produce multifunctional polymer composites. This paper aims to investigate the interfacial shear properties for different contents of ALTi particles incorporated into PA6 with de-sized carbon fiber. By means of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), activated carbon atoms can be detected, which are defined as the carbon atoms conjunction with oxygen and nitrogen. Sizing removal can reduce the acid parameter of carbon fibers surface promoting bonding strength at the fiber/matrix interface which is a desirable property for the carbon fiber composites. XPS also, showed that epoxide group still appeared with using acetone treatment while disappeared with conventional heating at the oven for 25min ate 450oC. SEM images did not show any damage for the carbon fiber after heat treatment. Interfacial shear strength (IFSS) showed an improvement in interfacial adhesion with de-sizing carbon fiber than neat PA6.
