A multiscale hydrothermal carbon layer modified carbon fiber for composite fabrication.

ABSTRACT: A novel multiscale hydrothermal carbon layer (MHTCL) for carbon fiber (CF) surface modification was developed. The MHTCL is a multiscale high-disorder amorphous carbon coating with a colored appearance, abundant functional groups, multiscale roughness, a large specific surface area, a high surface energy, and good wetting ability. The O/C atom ratios of the MHTCL-modified CF were in the range of 0.17-0.23, and the functional groups were mainly C-O and C[double bond, length as m-dash]O groups. During the low-concentration glucose hydrothermal treatment with the carbon fibers (CFs), the glucose generates furan derivative intermediates, which adsorb on the surface of the CFs and carbonize continuously, finally forming the MHTCL on the CFs. The fracture and rupture of the MHTCL during the forming process produce new nucleation centers on the CF surface, which result in abundant multiscale irregular particles. The MHTCL is a facile method for the modification of CFs. The fabrication of the CF composites demonstrated that the MHTCL obviously increases the interlaminar shear strength of the CF/polyimide composite and the interfacial interaction of the CF and polyetheretherketone.

Project description:Optical fiber (OF) sensors are critical optical devices with excellent sensing capabilities and the capacity to operate in remote and hostile environments. However, integrating functional materials and micro/nanostructures into the optical fiber systems for specific sensing applications has limitations of compatibility, readiness, poor control, robustness, and cost-effectiveness. Herein, we have demonstrated the fabrication and integration of stimuli-responsive optical fiber probe sensors using a novel, low-cost, and facile 3D printing process. Thermal stimulus-response of thermochromic pigment micro-powders was integrated with optical fibers by incorporating them into ultraviolet-sensitive transparent polymer resins and then printed via a single droplet 3D printing process. Hence, the thermally active polymer composite fibers were grown (additively manufactured) on top of the commercial optical fiber tips. Then, the thermal response was studied within the temperature range of (25-35 °C) and (25-31 °C) for unicolor and dual color pigment powders-based fiber-tip sensors, respectively. The unicolor (with color to colorless transition) and dual color (with color to color transition) powders-based sensors exhibited substantial variations in transmission and reflection spectra by reversibly increasing and decreasing temperatures. The sensitivities were calculated from the transmission spectra where average change in transmission spectra was recorded as 3.5% with every 1 °C for blue, 3% for red and 1% for orange-yellow thermochromic powders based optical fiber tip sensors. Our fabricated sensors are cost-effective, reusable, and flexible in terms of materials and process parameters. Thus, the fabrication process can potentially develop transparent and tunable thermochromic sensors for remote sensing with a much simpler manufacturing process compared to conventional and other 3D printing processes for optical fiber sensors. Moreover, this process can integrate micro/nanostructures as patterns on the optical fiber tips to increase sensitivity. The developed sensors may be employed as remote temperature sensors in biomedical and healthcare applications.
