An in situ diazonium grafting methodology was used to decorate the surface of carbon fibres with pendant amines. This methodology was shown to greatly affect IFSS in single fibre composites.

AbstractUnidirectional composite material samples with ultrahigh modulus carbon fibres, treated and untreated by oxygen plasma, and a polycarbonate matrix were prepared and tested. Dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) was used to study interfacial fibre/matrix interaction and the fragmentation test method was applied to determine interfacial shear strength. For the composite samples with treated carbon fibres, analyzed by DMA, a consistent shift of the loss modulus peak toward higher temperature was observed. The damping ratio was highly affected by residual stresses along the carbon fibre direction due to the large difference of thermal expansion coefficients of matrix and fibres. Critical fibre length and interfacial shear strength, obtained from the fragmentation test, showed substantial improvement for treated fibres as compared to the untreated ones. Plasma oxidation of the fibre surface improved considerably the fibre-matrix interaction. Care must be taken interpreting the DMA results, due to specific characteristics of the system studied.

Recycled T800S carbon fibre from a polymer composite using a pyrolysis process was compared with virgin T800S fibre and the contact angle and interfacial shear strength with epoxy and vinyl ester resins were measured. The contact angles were measured using drop length-height method, and the interfacial shear strengths were measured using micro-bond method. For the same type of resin, the recycled T800S carbon fibre had a greater contact angle and lower interfacial shear strength than those of the virgin fibre.

Transfer Models

A model has been proposed that represents the compressive fragmentation phenomenon and can evaluate the interfacial shear strength without recourse to complicated stress transfer models. The temperature dependence of the interfacial shear strength is investigated for carbon fibre-polycarbonate microcomposites and the values obtained are applicable to a system that has weak interfacial bonding.
