“…2,28,33,34 After co-deposition of TA/POSS on the fiber surface, four new peaks are observed, which can be assigned to C−Si (284.2 eV), CN (287 eV), CO (288.1 eV), and O−CO (289 eV). 1,6,28,30,35 Interestingly, the C−Si and C−N contents markedly increase from 0 and 5.07% (de-sized CF) to 19.94 and These results indicate that the elevated mass of POSS−NH 2 assists in the cross-linking reaction between TA and POSS− NH 2 , resulting in the co-deposition of more adhesion coating on the fiber surface. As for the N 1s peak for CF-TA/POSS, there are three subpeaks at 398.8, 399.9, and 401.9 eV, which are ascribed to N−R, R−NH, and R−NH 2 , respectively.…”
