摘要: 常压等离子改性被广泛应用于改善碳纤维复合材料(CFRP)的胶接性能，然而，等离子改性过程会造成CFRP表面温度升高，导致热变形、热内应力甚至破坏基材，因此，需要进一步优化工艺参数，获得满足工程使用要求的等离子改性效果。本文采用空气作为常压等离子的气源，测试了不同等离子改性参数下CFRP表面的温度，建立了表面温度与喷嘴高度、扫描速度之间的函数关系，实现了准确的表面温度预测(均方根误差2.7℃，最大偏差5.4℃)。并进一步优化了等离子改性的扫描路径，以减少改性过程中热量的累积效应。结合等离子改性对CFRP胶接性能的测试结果，最终确定了满足表面处理温度小于150℃条件下等离子改性的最佳工艺参数：喷嘴高度16 mm，扫描速度45 mm/s，扫描间距16 mm。此时，CFRP表面温度为143.9℃，I型断裂韧性提升至425 J/m2 (相比原始状态提升约534.3%)，失效模式由界面改善为混合失效。该研究结果旨在找到表面温度与性能提升的最佳等离子改性工艺参数，对于等离子改性工艺在CFRP中的工程应用具有重要参考价值。Abstract: Atmospheric pressure plasma modification has been commonly applied to improving the adhesive bonding performance of carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP). However, plasma modification generally induces a high temperature on material surface, and causes thermal deformation, internal stress, and even damage to the CFRP. Therefore, it is necessary to further optimize the process parameters of plasma modification effects to meet the requirements of engineering application. This article uses air as the source of atmospheric pressure plasma to study surface temperature of CFRP under different process parameters. The functional relationship was established between surface temperature, nozzle height, and scanning speed, achieving accurate prediction for plasma-induced surface temperature (root mean square error of 2.7℃, maximum deviation of 5.4℃). Then, the scanning path of plasma modification was further optimized to reduce the cumulative effect of heat during the modification process. Based on the test results of plasma modification on the bonding performance of CFRP, the optimal process parameters were determined for plasma modification to control the surface treatment temperature less than 150℃, i.e. a nozzle height of 16 mm, a scanning speed of 45 mm/s, and a scanning spacing of 16mm, where the surface temperature of CFRP is measured as 143.9℃. Consequently, the Mode-I fracture toughness is increased to 425 J/m2 (approximately 534.3% higher than the original state), and the failure mode is improved from interface to mixed failure. The research results aim to find the optimal process of parameters plasma modification with consideration of surface temperature and adhesive bonding performance, which provides valuable and practical information to the engineering application of plasma modification processes for CFRP materials.
