摘要: 高模量碳纤维(HMCF)复合材料的界面性能一直是影响其应用的关键所在,对HMCF进行表面改性则是实现界面性能提高的重要途径之一。采用电泳沉积法将石墨烯纳米片(GNP)引入到HMCF表面,通过扫描电镜(SEM)、X射线光电子能谱(XPS)对改性前后的HMCF表面形貌、表面化学状态进行了表征,测试了改性前后HMCF增强环氧树脂复合材料的层间剪切强度(ILSS)和吸湿率。结果表明,HMCF表面电泳沉积GNP,不仅可以改善其增强环氧树脂复合材料的界面性能,同时也能降低复合材料的吸湿率。在GNP浓度为0.5 mg/mL,电泳沉积电压为10 V时,复合材料层间剪切性能提高了8.8%,达到75.6 MPa;90℃、80RH%环境下存放30天后,与未改性样品相比,其吸湿率降低了9.5%,存放60天后层间剪切性能仍保持在67.8 MPa。改性高模量碳纤维复合材料界面性能与耐湿热性能均得以提高。Abstract: The interfacial properties of high-modulus carbon fiber (HMCF) composites have always been the key to their applications, and surface modification of HMCF is one of the important ways to improve the interfacial properties. Graphene nanosheets (GNP) were introduced into the surface of HMCF by electrophoretic deposition, and the surface morphology and surface chemical state of HMCF before and after modification were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and the interlaminar shear strength (ILSS) and moisture absorption rate of HMCF reinforced epoxy resin composites before and after modification were tested. The results show that the surface electrophoretic deposition of GNP by HMCF can not only improve the interfacial properties of the reinforced epoxy resin composites, but also reduce the moisture absorption rate of the composites. When the GNP concentration was 0.5 mg/mL and the electrophoretic deposition voltage was 10 V, the interlaminar shear performance of the composites increased by 8.8% to 75.6 MPa, and the moisture absorption rate was reduced by 9.5% compared with the unmodified sample after 30 days of storage at 90°C and 80 RH%, and the interlayer shear performance remained at 67.8 MPa after 60 days of storage. Both interfacial and hygrothermal properties of the modified HMCF comosites have been improved.
