“…On the contrary, in the case of treated UHMWPE fibers/NR composites, it can be seen that the tensile stress becomes higher than that of NR and as‐received UHMWPE fibers/NR composites. Kondo et al found that when NR including some silica was vulcanized together with grafted inert fibers, the mechanical properties of composites increased. In our study, a liquid‐phase oxidation technique was used to modify the inert fibers surface, and the mechanical property of fibers/NR composites was also improved.…”

“…However, the good physical properties make it difficult to achieve a satisfactory bond with the polymer matrix, resulting in limiting the use of UHMWPE fiber reinforced composites . Because the surface of UHMWPE fiber is chemically inert and lack of functional groups, so that it merely possesses weak adhesion to rubber and resin . To improve the interaction between UHMWPE fibers and matrix, some surface treatments have been investigated, such as acid etching , plasma deposition , and UV initiated graft copolymerization .…”

The mechanical properties of ultra‐high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) fibers reinforced natural rubber (NR) composites were determined, and the effects of fiber surface treatment and fiber mass fraction on the mechanical properties of the composites were investigated. Chromic acid was used to modify the UHMWPE fibers, and the results showed that the surface roughness and the oxygen‐containing groups on the surface of the fibers could be effectively increased. The NR matrix composites were prepared with as‐received and chromic acid treated UHMWPE fibers added 0–6 wt%. The treated UHMWPE fibers increased the elongation at break, tear strength, and hardness of the NR composites, especially the tensile stress at a given elongation, but reduced the tensile strength. The elongation at break increased markedly with increasing fiber mass fraction, attained maximum values at 3.0 wt%, and then decreased. The tear strength and hardness exhibited continuous increase with increasing the fiber content. Several microfibrillations between the fiber and NR matrix were observed from SEM images of the fractured surfaces of the treated UHMWPE fibers/NR composites, which meant that the interfacial adhesion strength was improved.

“…Due to its low surface activity, clay has very poor reinforcing ability as compared to carbon black or precipitated silica. Modification of the filler surface to improve adhesion has become increasingly importantKondo, Miyazaki et al (2008). A new method of clay surface modification by coating the clay fillers with an acrylate monomer, trimethylolpropanetriacrylate (TMPTA) followed by electron beam irradiation of the coated fillers has been reported .…”

“…Among all fiber reinforcing materials, ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) fiber is a promising material because of its extraordinary properties, such as high strength, high impact resistance, chemical stability, low moisture absorption, lightweight, low coefficient of friction and self-lubricating properties, etc [2][3][4][5]. However, UHMWPE fibers merely possesses insufficient adhesion to polymer matrix due to lack of polar functional groups and a low surface free energy [6,7], resulting in limiting the use of UHMWPE fiber reinforced composites.…”

The effects of surface treatment using potassium permanganate on ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) fibers reinforced natural rubber (NR) composites were investigated. The results showed the surface roughness and the oxygen-containing groups on the surface of the modified fibers were effectively increased. The NR matrix composites were prepared with asreceived and modified UHMWPE fibers added 0-6 wt%. The treated fibers increased the modulus and tensile stress at a given elongation. The tear strength increased with increasing fiber mass fraction, attained maximum values at 4 wt%. The hardness of composites exhibited continuous increase with increasing the fiber content. The dynamic mechanical tests showed that the storage modulus and the tangent of the loss angle were decreased in the modified UHMWPE fibers/NR composites. Several micro-fibrillations between the treated fiber and NR matrix were observed, which meant the interfacial adhesion strength was improved.
