[0025] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: 1. In the present invention, the dispersibility and compatibility of the modified carbon fiber in the matrix are improved. The introduction of the amino-silane coupling agent, with a relatively large silicon-oxygen bond energy, increases the high-temperature resistance to a certain extent. The amino group in the amino-modified carbon fiber reacts with the chloro group in the flame-retardant phenyl dichlorophosphate to form a P-N bond, and the two are connected by a covalent bond to obtain phenyl dichlorophosphate-grafted carbon fiber, introducing phosphorus element onto the carbon fiber surface. Since phosphorus itself has flame retardancy, the flame retardancy is further improved. 2-(2-Hydroxyphenyl)-5-amino-2H-benzotriazole has a benzotriazole structure, which has excellent heat resistance and antioxidant properties and can improve the high-temperature resistance of the composite material. Its active functional groups include hydroxyl and amino groups, and the hydroxyl group therein chemically reacts with the chloro group in the phenyl dichlorophosphate-grafted carbon fiber to obtain a functional filler with better chemical resistance. The amino group in the functional filler can further react with epoxy resin under the action of a catalyst, and the two are connected by a covalent bond, with better compatibility and better interfacial bonding. In the present invention, a multi-functional interface layer is constructed on the carbon fiber surface. This interface layer can not only form a strong chemical bond with the carbon fiber but also react with epoxy resin, thereby realizing the effective connection between the carbon fiber and the epoxy resin and improving the mechanical properties of the composite material.

[0026] 2. In the present invention, the modified carbon fiber is more likely to form a carbon layer during the combustion process. The carbon layer can effectively block heat transfer and the release of combustible gases; phenyl dichlorophosphate contains phosphorus element, and phosphorus can form phosphoric acid or metaphosphoric acid during combustion. These substances can cover the material surface to form a protective layer to prevent oxygen from entering, thereby playing a flame-retardant role. In addition, phosphorus can also promote the carbonization of the material to form a carbon layer to block the release of heat and combustible gases; 2-(2-Hydroxyphenyl)-5-amino-2H-benzotriazole contains nitrogen element, which can release non-combustible gases such as nitrogen during combustion to dilute the oxygen concentration in the combustion area, thereby inhibiting combustion; through the modification of the carbon fiber surface, its dispersibility and compatibility are improved, enabling the flame-retardant elements to be more evenly dispersed in the epoxy resin matrix, playing a synergistic role and improving the flame retardancy of the material.

The average tensile strength of the high-temperature resistant carbon fiber composites in Examples 1-5 is 62.44 MPa, and after thermal-oxidative aging, especially in Example 5, good tensile strength is maintained, with a retention rate of 87.5%. In Comparative Example 1 compared with Example 1, there is no covalent bond connection between the epoxy resin and the functional filler, the binding force between the two is reduced, and the dispersion of the functional filler in the epoxy resin is not as good as that in Comparative Example 1. Therefore, the tensile property of Example 1 is better than that of Comparative Example 1; in Comparative Example 2 compared with Comparative Example 1, 2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-5-amino-2H-benzotriazole is missing, the active sites for reacting with the epoxy resin are missing, the crosslinking degree is reduced, the tensile property is reduced, and 2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-5-amino-2H-benzotriazole itself has certain heat resistance, and once it is missing, the heat resistance decreases; in Comparative Example 3 compared with Comparative Example 2, phenyl dichlorophosphate, amino-modified carbon fiber and epoxy resin are mixed, there will be problems of uneven dispersion and poor interfacial bonding, and the tensile property and heat aging property of Comparative Example 3 are both lower than those of Comparative Example 2.

[0041] (3) Flame retardancy test: The test method refers to the oxygen index method - test method for combustion performance of plastics in GB / T 2406.2-2009. The test results are shown in Table 2 as follows: Table 2

[0042] According to the test results in Table 2, it can be seen that when the modified carbon fiber is added to the epoxy resin, it will increase the heat resistance and flame retardancy to a certain extent. Its dispersion performance and compatibility are better, and its heat resistance and flame retardancy are naturally better. The high-temperature resistant carbon fiber composite material prepared by the present invention shows the best flame retardancy performance in Example 5. In Comparative Example 1 compared with Example 1, the dispersion and compatibility of the functional filler in the epoxy resin are not as good as those in Comparative Example 1, so the flame retardancy performance is lower than that of Example 1. In Comparative Example 2 compared with Comparative Example 1, 2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-5-amino-2H-benzotriazole containing nitrogen element is missing. The nitrogen element contained can generate nitrogen-containing non-combustible gases during the combustion process of the matrix, effectively diluting the concentration of oxygen in the combustion system and slowing down the progress of the combustion reaction, playing a flame retardant effect. Once it is missing, the flame retardancy performance will naturally decrease. In Comparative Example 3 compared with Comparative Example 2, phenyl dichlorophosphate and amino-modified carbon fiber have a certain flame retardant effect. At the same time, the HCl gas formed by the chlorine element in phenyl dichlorophosphate during the combustion process can play a role in interrupting the chain reaction of combustion, slowing down or even preventing the continuation of combustion, which is beneficial to flame retardancy. However, its dispersion is not as good as that in Comparative Example 2. Generally speaking, the flame retardancy performance of Comparative Example 3 is lower than that of Comparative Example 2.

[0043] (4) High-temperature resistance test: The high-temperature resistant carbon fiber composite materials prepared in Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 1-3 are made into specimens with dimensions of 15 mm × 15 mm × 3 mm in length, width and height, placed in an oven, heated to 150 °C, and the shear strength of the specimens is measured. Repeat 3 times and record the average value. The specific results are shown in Table 3 as follows; Table 3

[0044] According to the test results in Table 3, it can be seen that the high-temperature resistant carbon fiber composite materials prepared in Examples 1-5 have good heat resistance performance, which is better than those in Comparative Examples 1-3.

[0045] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, for those of ordinary skill in the art, it can be understood that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principle and spirit of the present invention. All equivalent changes and improvements made according to the scope of the present invention application should still fall within the scope covered by the patent of the present invention.
