“…As can be seen, the HNTs are closely linked to the PVDF matrix (denoted by the circles). That is, interfacial interaction between the PVDF and HNTs is strong, which facilitates the transfer of stress from the PVDF matrix to the HNTs . Moreover, more fiber‐like β‐phase in the PVDF matrix induced by better dispersed HNTs is effective in the energy dissipation under applied stress field .…”

Halloysite nanotubes (HNTs)‐filled poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) nanocomposites were fabricated using continuous mixing extrusion with and without water injection. The HNTs dispersion state was qualitatively and quantitatively analyzed by using transmission electron microscopy and the Halpin‐Tsai equation, suggesting better HNTs dispersion in the nanocomposites fabricated with water injection. To grasp the relationship between the structure and properties, the effect of the HNTs dispersion on the tensile fracture mechanism and melt elongational rheology of the nanocomposites was investigated. It was deduced from morphological observations on the fractured surfaces that for the nanocomposites fabricated without and with water injection, cracks initially formed at the vicinity of HNTs aggregates and the thinner brittle fracture edge region, respectively. This was attributed to the important roles of the PVDF crystallization behavior and HNTs dispersion on the formation of the voids, wedges and ridges, which are the origins for forming cracks and easily formed at region with more HNTs aggregates or lower crystallinity. The nanocomposites fabricated with water injection exhibited lower elongational viscosities and 17–60% increments for the draw ratios at break than those fabricated without water injection, due to better HNTs dispersion induced by injected water.

“…Carbon fibers, one type of chemical fibers are the most commonly used reinforcements in advanced composites. They have excellent properties such as low density, high strength, high modulus, high temperature resistance, and chemical corrosion resistance . Carbon fiber‐reinforced polymer composites have excellent properties of both carbon fibers and resins, but there are also some defects, such as low interfacial strength.…”

“…Research in applying nanofillers into matrices involves potentially unique characteristics such as enhanced mechanical properties, improved thermal stability, and multifunctionality. According to the characteristics of FRPMCs, the introduction of nano‐materials into FRPMCs has been attained, which was fundamentally based on two strategies: (1) mixing nano‐materials entirely throughout the matrix, as shown in Figure (a) or (2) attaching nanofillers directly onto fiber surface, as shown in Figure (b) .

Fiber‐reinforced polymer matrix composites (FRPMCs) are the most promising and valuable material developed in the last few decades. In response to the increased research and publications concerning the thermal stability of FRPMCs, this review has culled typical journals for publications relevant to structural stability. In this review, the effects of temperature on the structural integrity of FRPMCs are discussed from the perspective of matrix types, fiber types, nanoparticle (NP) modifications on resin matrix, and various related mechanical properties. For NP‐modified FRPMCs, characterization of all anisotropic properties under various strain rates and temperatures becomes essential for analysis, design, and numerical simulations. Improving the structural stability of FRPMCs at different temperatures is an important direction. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2019, 136, 48206.

A B S T R A C TIn this study, desized carbon fibers were coated with carbon nanotubes using two diverse coating techniques, i.e. dip coating and spray up process, while the factors affecting the coating techniques were investigated. The morphological study revealed better nanotube coating on carbon fibers from dip coating technique as compared to spray up process. Later, nanotubecoated fibers from dip coating were impregnated with epoxy to fabricate multiscale carbon fiber reinforced epoxy matrix composites. The nanotubes on fiber surface were expected to improve the interlaminar shear properties of the multiscale composites. According to short beam shear testing, 14% increase in interlaminar shear strength was observed in composite containing nanotubes as compared to reference composite. Microscopic observation under optical and electron microscopes confirmed the void-free impregnation of fibers with epoxy along with the presence of nanotubes on fibers and in matrix in the vicinity of fibers. Finally, the mechanisms involving the enhanced interlaminar properties were identified and discussed.
