Poly (phenylene sulfide) (PPS) is one kind of high‐performance polymer with high thermal stability that can be used widely in different industrial domains. However, according to an investigation of the literature, few reviews have comprehensively focused on the continuous development of PPS applications in the past decade. To meet this demand, this paper provides an overall investigation of PPS polymer and PPS‐based composites from synthesis and process to applications. Briefly, this paper introduces PPS materials according to the following topics. First, the molecular weight distribution and morphology of PPS, as well as their reinforced parts, are introduced. Afterward, the topic is focused on the synthesis, process, and blending of PPS. In the next part, this paper investigates the key points regarding PPS as a high‐performance polymer, focusing on the aspect of thermal behavior and mechanical properties. Finally, PPS composite applications are emphasized and overviewed from a wide range of aspects.

The surface modification of stainless-steel (SS) mesh was carried out by chemical etching for different time, and then, the etched SS meshes were used as the interlayer heating element for resistance welding of glass fabric-reinforced polyetherimide (GF/PEI) composite laminates. The hydrophobicity and tensile strength of the etched and untreated SS wires and interfacial shear strength (IFSS) between SS wire and PEI resin were investigated by dynamic contact angle (DCA) analyzer and single fiber pull-out test to evaluate the influence of the degree of chemical etching on the bonding strength of PEI resin and SS surface. Tensile lap-shear strength (LSS) and scanning electron microscope (SEM) analysis were performed to investigate the welding interface strength and fracture morphologies of the resistance-welded joint of the GF/PEI laminates. The hydrophobicity and tensile strength of SS wires were increased and decreased respectively with etching time (t e ). The IFSS of SS wire/PEI resin showed an improvement with t e . The LSS was increased first and then decreased with t e , and the optimal t e was 30 min when LSS reached the maximum. Fracture analysis showed the main failure mode of the welded joints was the interlayer debonding when welding time (t w ) was insufficient. With the extension of t w , the failure mode gradually switched into the intralayer tearing of the SS implant.

“…The development of manufacturing technique for curved composite panels by using the Integrated Structural Assembly of Advanced Composites (ISSAC) robot at NASA Langley Research Center. Also, the innovative manufacturing technologies of the integrated stiffened composite panel such as through-thickness stitching followed by resin film infusion [8], vacuum assisted resin transfer molding and Pi-joining [7], continuous induction welding [9] and the pultruded rod stitched efficient unitized structure (PRSEUS) concept [10], etc. All of these techniques make it possible to manufacture integrated stiffened composite panel attached by curved composite stiffeners to satisfy various constraints in the aircraft wings and fuselage design.…”
