Example

[0018] [Embodiments 1 to 12]

[0019] 1. Preparation of spraying liquid:

[0020] Take the commercially available functionalized carbon nanotubes and the dispersion liquid and mix them in a container according to the required ratio, and then use ultrasonic waves with a frequency of 25kHz for ultrasonic vibration for about 5 hours to fully disperse the carbon nanotubes in the dispersion liquid. Then prepare the spray liquid of the required concentration for subsequent use. The composition of the spraying liquid in each embodiment is shown in Table 1. The diameter distribution of the single-wall carbon nanotubes used is 0.5-5 nm, the diameter distribution of the multi-wall carbon nanotubes is 10-20 nm, and the length distribution is 10-30 μm.

Abstract

A method for reinforcing carbon fibers, which uses electrostatic spraying to coat carbon nanotubes on the surface of carbon fibers to compensate for surface structural defects and increase its strength. One of carbon nanotubes, carboxylated carbon nanotubes or aminated carbon nanotubes, the dispersion liquid is one of dimethylformamide, acetone or ethanol; the spray liquid is applied with 10-40kV positive static electricity, and the carbon fiber tow Flattened and grounded to form a spray liquid receiver; the spray liquid is sprayed on the surface of the carbon fiber by electrostatic spraying, and the spray amount is controlled to 1000: (0.4-10) in terms of the weight ratio of carbon fiber to carbon nanotube. The residence time required for carbon fiber to reach the necessary amount of carbon nanotube coating is usually only 0.5 to 5 minutes, and the tensile strength of carbon fiber with increased strength after repair can be increased by more than 100%. The process is simple, the cost is low, the efficiency is high, and industrial application is easy to realize.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for reinforcing carbon fibers, in particular to a method for coating carbon nanotubes on the surface of carbon fibers by an electrostatic spraying method to compensate for surface structural defects and increase the strength of the carbon fibers. Background technique [0002] Carbon fiber can almost be considered as the non-metallic material with the highest specific strength and specific modulus so far, and has been widely used in transportation, sports equipment, construction and even aerospace fields. However, the strength and elastic modulus of existing carbon fiber products are actually far from the theoretical value. Taking the tensile strength as an example, it is generally only 3-5% of the theoretical value. The root cause of this phenomenon is that carbon fibers generally have structural defects, especially acrylonitrile-based carbon fibers, because their precursors are prepared by solution spinning, and the f...
