Abstract

Polymer composites have progressively found applications in sectors such as automotive, aerospace and energy storage. Their high performance can be mainly attributed to their compositions (e.g. the types of fillers and matrices) and structures (e.g. the orientation and dimension of fillers). Filler orientation has long been a crucial subject for the composite community. While the emerging discontinuous fillers offer new attributes to the next generation composites and new composite manufacturing techniques such as additive manufacturing, their orientation, however, has been much less understood and controlled as compared to that of the continuous fillers, mainly due to their small scales. Focusing on the role of filler orientation in the processing-structure–property relationships of polymer composites, the present Review critically discusses recent progress on the modelling, characterization, control and applications of the orientation of discontinuous fillers, with the advantages and disadvantages of the representative approaches analyzed. Their correlations are revealed under a proposed theoretical framework based on the rotational degree of freedom and translational degree of freedom of the fillers. Some selection criteria are proposed to guide future selection of composite manufacturing techniques for customized filler orientation. Finally, unaddressed fundamental issues and future perspectives on research and development in this field are highlighted.

聚合物复合材料中不连续填料的取向：建模、表征、控制和应用

聚合物复合材料已逐步应用于汽车、航空航天和能源储存等领域。它们的高性能主要归功于其组成（如填料和基质的类型）和结构（如填料的取向和尺寸）。长期以来，填料取向一直是复合材料界的一个重要课题。虽然新出现的非连续填料为下一代复合材料和新的复合材料制造技术（如增材制造）提供了新的特性，但与连续填料相比，人们对其取向的了解和控制要少得多，这主要是由于它们的尺度较小。本综述以填料取向在聚合物复合材料的加工-结构-性能关系中的作用为重点，批判性地讨论了非连续填料取向的建模、表征、控制和应用方面的最新进展，并分析了代表性方法的优缺点。在基于填料旋转自由度和平移自由度的拟议理论框架下，揭示了它们之间的相关性。此外，还提出了一些选择标准，以指导未来对定制填料取向的复合材料制造技术进行选择。最后，强调了该领域尚未解决的基本问题和未来的研究与发展前景。

期刊介绍： Progress in Materials Science is a journal that publishes authoritative and critical reviews of recent advances in the science of materials. The focus of the journal is on the fundamental aspects of materials science, particularly those concerning microstructure and nanostructure and their relationship to properties. Emphasis is also placed on the thermodynamics, kinetics, mechanisms, and modeling of processes within materials, as well as the understanding of material properties in engineering and other applications. The journal welcomes reviews from authors who are active leaders in the field of materials science and have a strong scientific track record. Materials of interest include metallic, ceramic, polymeric, biological, medical, and composite materials in all forms. Manuscripts submitted to Progress in Materials Science are generally longer than those found in other research journals. While the focus is on invited reviews, interested authors may submit a proposal for consideration. Non-invited manuscripts are required to be preceded by the submission of a proposal. Authors publishing in Progress in Materials Science have the option to publish their research via subscription or open access. Open access publication requires the author or research funder to meet a publication fee (APC). Abstracting and indexing services for Progress in Materials Science include Current Contents, Science Citation Index Expanded, Materials Science Citation Index, Chemical Abstracts, Engineering Index, INSPEC, and Scopus.
