This study explores the development of SH nanocomposite coatings based on polysiloxane-modified halloysite nanoclay (HNC) for glass, carbon, and Kevlar composites. The coatings’ effectiveness in preventing and removing ice was evaluated through various tests, including ice adhesion and air-blowing tests. The results showed that the SH coatings enhanced ice dissipation, particularly for carbon fiber composites. Despite slight changes in water contact angle after repeated tests, the coatings retained SH properties. Self-cleaning and wear tests demonstrated that the coatings successfully repelled dust and pollutants, while maintaining mechanical durability.

Collagen-based fibers have emerged as a promising option due to their moisture properties, biodegradability, and biocompatibility for durable textiles. However, these fibers encounter significant challenges in terms of mechanical strength, durability, and viability for sustainable production. In this study, robust and durable collagen-based fibers were designed using a dual cross-linking strategy and continuously prepared in situ via a low-temperature aqueous coagulation device. During wet spinning, polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and aluminum chloride (AlCl₃) act as the continuant and cross-linker, respectively. AlCl₃ effectively chelates the carboxyl groups on the collagen molecular chains and the reactive hydroxyl groups on the PVA chains, forming a stable coordination-hydrogen bond dual cross-linking network. Optimization of the spinning parameters resulted in fibers exhibiting superior mechanical properties, with a tensile strength of 339 MPa, Young’s modulus of 12.9 GPa, and toughness of 93 MJ/m³. Additionally, these fibers demonstrate a 10.8 % moisture regain and a dyeing grade of 4, highlighting their enhanced durability and breathability. This research provides robust solutions for enduring fibers and sustainable manufacturing processes in the slow fashion sector, facilitating new opportunities for the sustainable utilization of collagen waste.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":282,"journal":{"name":"Composites Part A: Applied Science and Manufacturing","volume":"193 ","pages":"Article 108871"},"PeriodicalIF":8.1,"publicationDate":"2025-03-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143704250","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Initially, based on in-situ/non in-situ testing methods, the characteristic responsiveness of FBG sensing signals to the curing behavior of CFRP was explored. Furthermore, the feature response amplitude was used to evaluate the feature responsiveness of embedding setups (packaging structure and embedding techniques) to phase transitions. It was found that non-uniform adhesion and consolidation affected the sensor’s representation of curing shrinkage. Finally, using high characteristic response FBG sensors, the process optimal strategy for CFRP was explored. The proposed method for analyzing the characteristic response of FBG sensing signals establishes and validates the relationship between CFRP curing behaviors and signal points, as well as stage-specific amplitude changes.

A robust design strategy (a one-time optimisation that is robust to variabilities of the material and process) is compared with a digital twin approach (active control is conducted based on real-time optimisation, accounting for in-situ measurements of variabilities). An optimisation method based on a Gaussian process (GP) surrogate model, active learning, dimension reduction and gradient boosting is developed.

It was shown that plasma transition from diffuse to filamentary discharge for a nozzle in close proximity to CF changes the surface modification trend.
