The cylindrical pellets with a particle size of 4 mm and a length of 2.5 mm are obtained through a water-cooled pelletizing mechanism.

[0112] S6: The extruded granules are evenly filled into the mold cavity. Under the condition of initial pressure of 15MPa, the temperature is increased to 390℃ at a rate of 5℃ / min, and then the pressure is increased to 25MPa and held for 25 minutes to form the first stage of plasticity. The temperature is further increased to 410℃ and the pressure is increased to 35MPa. The pressure is held for 35 minutes to complete the high-temperature curing. Then the temperature is decreased to 200℃ at a rate of 3℃ / min, the pressure is released, the mold is opened, and the blank is removed. It is placed in a heat treatment furnace and heated to 230℃ at a rate of 4℃ / min. The temperature is kept constant for 2.5 hours, and finally cooled to room temperature with the furnace to obtain the final product.

[0114] Formulation composition: 60% polypropylene matrix resin, 35% short-cut carbon fiber (300μm in length), 1% coupling agent, and 4% halogen-free flame retardant.

[0115] The preparation steps are as follows:

[0116] S1: Short carbon fibers are mixed with a 2% (w / w) coupling agent ethanol solution, left to stand at room temperature for 30 minutes, and then dried at 100°C for 2 hours to enhance the interfacial bonding with the resin.

[0117] S2: Add the dried carbon fiber, polypropylene, and flame retardant to a twin-screw extruder according to the specified ratio. Set the heating zone temperature to 180℃, 200℃, 220℃, and 230℃, and the screw speed to 100r / min. After melt blending, the material is discharged and cut into cylindrical particles with a diameter of 2mm.

[0118] S3: The obtained mixed particles are filled into a mold, and hot-pressed at 230℃ and 15MPa for 10 minutes, then cooled and demolded to obtain a carbon fiber reinforced coating material sample.

[0119] Table 1 Performance Parameters and Comparison of Coating Materials

[0120]

[0121] As shown in Table 1 above, Example 1 exhibits the strongest tensile strength (210 MPa) and flexural modulus (12.5 GPa), significantly outperforming other schemes. This is mainly due to the combined effects of plasma activation, nano-dispersion, and magnetic field-induced fiber orientation. Regarding notched impact strength, Example 1 reaches 28.6 kJ / m. 2 It is superior to Examples 2 and 3, and far exceeds the 12.1 kJ / m² of the comparative example. 2 Example 1 has a heat distortion temperature of 240℃, demonstrating the synergistic advantages of polyetheretherketone resin and high-efficiency structural uniformity; Example 1 has a volume resistivity of 1.2 × 10⁻⁶. 6 The Ω·cm indicates that the carbon fiber and the matrix interface are more tightly bonded, effectively preventing charge migration. Thanks to the phosphorus-nitrogen synergistic flame retardant system and uniform dispersion, the LOI of Example 1 is 39.2%, which is more than 10% higher than that of the comparative example. The water absorption rate of Example 1 is only 0.18%, which is much lower than that of the comparative material (0.72%), showing that its interface encapsulation effect is good.

[0122] In summary, Example 1, through multi-level structural control and synergistic optimization of functional components, achieved excellent mechanical strength, thermal stability, electrical insulation, and flame retardant protection performance, demonstrating the best performance in all evaluation indicators and possessing significant advantages for engineering applications.
