Abstract
Sizing treatment is a suitable technique to modify the fiber-matrix interfaces without damage of inherent performance of fibers. In this work, sizing agents based on Janus particles (JPs) were utilized to enhance the interface of basalt fiber (BF)/poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) composites. polystyrene/poly(butyl acrylate) (PS/PBA)@silica JPs were synthesized by seed emulsion polymerization and three different sizing agents were prepared for BF sizing treatment. JPs with organic soft sphere and inorganic hard hemisphere enhanced the interfaces through their amphiphilicity, chemical bonding and mechanical interlock. The mechanical properties of composite with JPs sizing treated BFs performed better when there was one JPs layer modified on the interface. According to the intermitting bonding and gradient modulus theory, JPs patterned interfaces are ideal transition layers between high modulus BF and low modulus PVC.
期刊介绍:
Chinese Journal of Polymer Science (CJPS) is a monthly journal published in English and sponsored by the Chinese Chemical Society and the Institute of Chemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences. CJPS is edited by a distinguished Editorial Board headed by Professor Qi-Feng Zhou and supported by an International Advisory Board in which many famous active polymer scientists all over the world are included. The journal was first published in 1983 under the title Polymer Communications and has the current name since 1985.
CJPS is a peer-reviewed journal dedicated to the timely publication of original research ideas and results in the field of polymer science. The issues may carry regular papers, rapid communications and notes as well as feature articles. As a leading polymer journal in China published in English, CJPS reflects the new achievements obtained in various laboratories of China, CJPS also includes papers submitted by scientists of different countries and regions outside of China, reflecting the international nature of the journal.
