多尺度增韧导电一体化碳纤维复合材料的设计与制备

Synergistic toughening and electrical conductivity in CFRP composites via multi-scale hybrid interlayers

  • 摘要: 碳纤维增强树脂基复合材料(Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer,CFRP)因其高比强度、比刚度和优异的耐腐蚀特性,在航空航天、国防军工、汽车轻量化等领域的应用愈加广泛。然而,传统CFRP存在本质脆性大以及明显的导电各向异性(即面内横向(XY-2)与厚度方向(Z))电导率极低两大瓶颈问题,这限制了其在雷击防护与电磁屏蔽等功能化场景下的应用。为此,本文设计并制备了一种兼具优异韧性与高导电性的多尺度增韧导电一体化复合材料。该复合材料以尼龙(PA)无纺布作为插层增韧结构骨架,通过在负载碳纳米管(CNTs)的PA无纺布上集成50 µm连续铜丝,构建了高效的三维导电网络结构。研究结果表明,与未添加插层的基准试样相比,引入Cu-CNTs-PA(CCP)插层后的复合材料层合板,其Ⅰ型、Ⅱ型层间断裂韧性值分别显著提升了22.78%和49.65%,同时试样在XY-2轴与Z轴方向电导率分别达到了1028.27 S/m和2.09 S/m。本研究成功打破了增韧组分对导电通路的阻碍效 应,实现了增韧与导电的协同优化,为高性能多功能复合材料的研发提供了新思路。

     

    Abstract: Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) composites are increasingly used in aerospace, military, and automotive lightweighting applications due to their high specific strength and stiffness, as well as excellent corrosion resistance. However, traditional CFRP suffers from two primary drawbacks: inherent brittleness and significant electrical anisotropy as poor electrical conductivity in the in-plane transverse (XY-2) and through-thickness (Z) directions. Therefore, integrating toughening and conductivity improvement is of critical importance for multifunctional applications. This study developed a synergistic strategy by designing a multi-scale hybrid interlayer, termed copper-CNTs-PA (CCP). The interlayer utilizes a nylon (PA) non-woven fabric as the structural skeleton, where copper wire of 50 µm diameter was integrated onto the fabric pre-loaded with carbon nanotubes to construct a robust three-dimensional conductive network. Experimental results demonstrated that, compared to traditional control samples without interlayers, the CCP-modified laminates exhibited significant enhancements. The Mode I (GIC) and Mode II (GIIC) interlaminar fracture toughness values increased remarkably by 22.78% and 49.65%, respectively. Simultaneously, the electrical conductivity in the XY-2 and Z directions reached 1028.27 S/m and 2.09 S/m, respectively. These findings confirm the successful synergistic improvement of toughness and electrical conductivity, overcoming the trade-off typically imposed by insulting toughening agents.
