Herein, we develop a novel method to significantly enhance Al-CFRP bond strength by boehmite crystallisation of aluminium through thickness reinforcement (TTR) pins embedded in the CFRP matrix. The hybrid Al-CFRP joints were prepared using flat aluminium substrates and substrates with 1 mm diameter TTR pins, which were both pretreated with the boehmite crystallisation process and compared to conventional chemical etched, micro blasted, and untreated aluminium control surfaces assembled with CFRP layers in a double cantilever beam configuration for mode I testing. Results reveal that the boehmite crystallisation process can successfully grow a sea of nano needle structures on the flat aluminium surface, which significantly enhances interfacial bonding with the CFRP, leading to increases in fracture toughness of 70%, 250%, and 555% over chemical etched, micro blasted, and untreated control joints, respectively. The addition of aluminium TTR pins provide further reinforcement to the CFRP, and crystallisation of the pins increases the mode I fracture resistance of the Al-CFRP hybrid composite joints by over 1800% compared to joints made with untreated aluminium substrates.</p><h3>Graphical Abstract</h3>\u0000<div><figure><div><div><picture><source><img></source></picture></div></div></figure></div></div>","PeriodicalId":7220,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Composites and Hybrid Materials","volume":"8 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":23.2,"publicationDate":"2025-01-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s42114-025-01244-x.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142995509","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The surface treatment of HNT with imidazole (IM) introduced a curing catalyst effect, reducing activation energy by 50% and accelerating curing time by 90%, as confirmed by Kissinger’s plot and permittivity measurements.

Significantly, the hybrid SAW sensor demonstrated superior reversibility, satisfactory long-term stability, and enhanced sensitivity under various elevated temperatures (RT-200 °C) and relative humidity (0 to 80%) conditions. These substantial improvements in H<sub>2</sub>S sensing performances of the hybrid SAW sensor can be accredited to the increased surface area, abundant surface terminal groups, defect states, oxygen vacancies, and the Schottky barrier modulation at CuO@V<sub>2</sub>C MXene vdW-HS, which collectively enhance the charge transfer and higher H<sub>2</sub>S gas adsorption.
