Preparation and properties of aluminum phosphate‐polyethersulfone laminated composites modified by aluminosilicate fiber fabric

Abstract

In the present work, aluminum phosphate-polyethersulfone (AlPO 4 -PES) laminated composites with three different reinforcement materials, including aluminosilicate fiber (AF), aluminosilicate fiber paper (AFP), and aluminosilicate fiber fabric (AFF), were successfully fabricated by the means of solution blending method and vacuum hot-pressing forming process. The surface morphologies, interfacial microstructures as well as thermal, mechanical, and dielectric properties of the as-prepared composites were researched. The results indicate that both the thermal stability and mechanical properties of AlPO 4 -PES laminated composites are apparently enhanced by introducing AF, AFP, and AFF into AlPO 4 thermal resistant layer. In contrast with AF/AlPO 4 -PES and AFP/AlPO 4 -PES, the AlPO 4 -PES composite containing 10.0 wt% AFF shows higher flexural and compressive properties (187.4 MPa, 4.98 GPa, and 193.7 MPa), together with better thermal insulation performance (0.21 W/[mÁK]). Of all PES-matrix laminated composites, the AFF/AlPO 4 -PES composite also exhibits the outstanding dielectric properties (ε = 1.96, tanδ = 0.008) at high frequency of 5 MHz. Besides, the 10.0 wt% AFF/AlPO 4 -PES composite not only owns the weak frequency dependence of dielectric constant and dielectric loss within the range of 10 2 H to 5 MHz but also exhibits favorable temperature stability of dielectric properties over a wide temperature scope of 25-120 C. This can be ascribed to the excellent dielectric performances of AFF as well as the good interface bonding property of AFF/AlPO 4 layer and PES matrix. POLYM. COMPOS., 40:4102-4112, 2019.

Synergistic effects of carbon fiber and polytetrafluoroethylene on the friction and wear behavior of polyarylene ether nitrile under dry lubrication condition

“…Therefore, in practice, it is often necessary to reduce the friction by filling 9 . Among the many filler modifiers, Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is commonly used 19–23 . PTFE has low cohesion due to the repulsion of the negative charges of the fluorine atoms in its different molecular chains.…”

“…Adopting electrophoretic deposition and heat treatment prepared PEEK/PTFE/graphite‐based composite coatings as reported Yuwen Liao et al 21 Under the loading condition of 10 N, the friction coefficient of the composite coating reduced by 80% and the wear rate reduced by an order of magnitude compared with the PEEK coating 21 . Shicheng Yan et al prepared a nanocomposite consisting of 0.8 wt% MWCNTs‐OH/PTFE/PI with the lowest friction coefficient (0.11) and wear rate (2.97 × 10 −15 m 3 /N m) at 90% relative humidity 22 . You Shi et al prepared melt‐blending multiscale PTFE and CF fiber hybrids of PPS matrix composites.…”

Self‐lubrication and tribological properties ofSBA‐15 as smart microcontainer and resin composites

“…Polymer‐based self‐lubricating materials have been of great interest to researchers because of their excellent tribological properties and their ability to be filled with different fillers depending on the requirements. [ 7,8 ] In recent years, smart materials with stimulus–response properties have attracted significant research interest in the fields of electronics, catalysis, and tribology. [ 9–12 ] These materials can produce functional changes in response to an applied stimulus (e.g., changes in temperature, stress, electric field, pH, and other environmental changes) to achieve the desired effect.…”

The selection of polyethersulfone/polyvinylpyrrolidone films for industrial application using the multiple‐criteria decision‐making approach

“…These organic polymers may include polyamides (PA), polyimides (PI), polyacrylonitriles (PAN), polytetrafluoroethylenes (PTFE), polysulfones (PSF), and polyethersulfone (PES). [4][5][6][7] Sulfone-containing polymers have been commonly used to prepare nanofiltration (NF) and ultrafiltration and are used in water applications. [8] The main limitation of using this technology is their fouling caused by unfavorable adsorption and accumulation of foulants on the membrane interface or within the pores.…”
