Modification of carbon fiber by magnetite particles

Abstract

In order to expand the application range of carbon reinforced composite materials in shielding field, this paper aimed to modify the chopped carbon fiber (CF) by magnetite particles with ultrasonic treatment. The modification was carried out in three stages and the increasing amount of the cover was proved by TGA analyze. SEM analyze is showed the most part of CF surface was coated by magnetite particles Fe3O4. Also it was noticed some agglomeration on each stages what is possibly connected with high surface energy of these particles. The chemical compound of the coating corresponds to ferrous oxide (II and III) what is confirmed by Raman spectroscopy.

Application of Carbon Fiber Cement-Based Composites in Improving Construction Durability

“…By observing the fracture section of CFRC samples under the electron microscope, we can clearly see the distribution of carbon fibers in the cement base. In CFRC, concrete is a continuous matrix material, and carbon fibers are dispersed in the matrix material [ 14 ]. Therefore, the mesostructure of CFRC is very complex, the distribution of carbon fibers is random, and its length is inconsistent.…”

Improved EMI Shielding Behavior of Barium Ferrite Coated Carbon Fibers in Low‐Density Polyethylene Composites with an Optimized Electroless Coating Process

“…The SEM reveals that carbon fibers have a uniform diameter and well‐defined shape, and BaFeO 3 is deposited at a greater distribution probability. The coating morphology is smooth, well‐scattered, and in‐homogeneous along the axial direction on the fiber‘s surface [51] …”

“…The coating morphology is smooth, well-scattered, and in-homogeneous along the axial direction on the fiber's surface. [51] Figure S4 (a) shows the SEM images of GNP. The photos revealed the layered structure of the Graphene.…”
