Application of Plasma Polymerization Technique to Improve Interfacial Properties of Glass Fiber/epoxy Composites
In this study, plasma polymerization technique was used to modify the surface of glass fiber under various plasma powers (30, 60 and 90 W) for exposure time of 15 min to improve the compatibility between glass fiber and epoxy matrix. γ -glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane (γ-GPS) monomer were used for surface coating of glass fiber. Interfacial properties of composites were investigated by short be...
متن کاملViscosity and interfacial properties in a mussel-inspired adhesive coacervate.
The chemistry of mussel adhesion has commanded the focus of much recent research activity on wet adhesion. By comparison, the equally critical adhesive processing by marine organisms has been little examined. Using a mussel-inspired coacervate formed by mixing a recombinant mussel adhesive protein (fp-151-RGD) with hyaluronic acid (HA), we have examined the nanostructure, viscosity, friction, a...
متن کاملInterfacial effects in composites
It is well known that the behavior of diverse multicomponent systems such as fibrous composites, particle—filled polymers, polymer blends, and pigmented coatings depends not only on the composition, morphology, and properties of the constituents, but also on the nature of the interfacial region. This paper reviews typical examples, with emphasis on interpretation of interactions between constit...
متن کاملThermoplastic starch/wood composites: interfacial interactions and functional properties.
Thermoplastic starch (TPS)/wood composites were prepared from starch plasticized with 36 wt% glycerol. The components were homogenized by dry-blending, extruded and injection molded to tensile bars. Tensile properties, structure, deformation, water adsorption and shrinkage were determined as a function of wood content, which changed between 0 and 40 vol% in 7 steps. The modification of TPS with...
متن کاملStructural Dynamics and Interfacial Properties of Elastomer Nano-composites
The combined effect of filler networking and reduced chain mobility close to the filler interface on the dynamic-mechanical properties of elastomers is analyzed based on investigations of the relaxation dynamics of solution styrene butadiene rubber filled with different loadings of silica. Dynamic-mechanical and dielectric spectra are studied in a wide frequency and temperature range. For the c...
