Natural fiber/degradable epoxy composites have received much attention for their advantages of low carbon emissions, low environmental pollution, and utilization of renewable resources. However, the poor interfacial bonding strength and inferior moisture resistance of natural fiber/degradable epoxy composites restrict their application areas. In order to improve the moisture and heat resistance of natural fiber/degradable epoxy resin-based composites, this study modified the surfaces of ramie fibers with hydroxylated carbon nanotubes, silane coupling agents, and sodium hydroxide, respectively. Three types of modified ramie fiber/degradable epoxy composites, namely F-CN-DEP, F-Si-DEP, and F-OH-DEP, were prepared using a winding forming process. The water absorption rate and short-beam shear strength of the materials were tested under different environments, and the fiber morphology and thermal–mechanical properties of the materials were investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA). The results show that F-CN-DEP exhibited the lowest moisture absorption rate; the highest shear strength, of 43.8 MPa; and a glass transition temperature (Tg) of 121.7 °C. The results demonstrate that carbon nanotubes on the fiber surface can improve the interfacial stability of ramie fiber/degradable epoxy composites in humid and hot environments. These results give guidelines for the development of natural fiber/degradable epoxy composites.

In this research carbon fibers (CFs) with plasma polyethylene (PPE) was utilized for enhancing the properties. The 10 wt% CF with PPE (CF/PPE) exhibited favorable electrical conductivity (34 Ω cm), with better tensile strength (22.7 MPa), flexural strength (26.89 MPa) compared with the other CF combinations. In the positive temperature coefficient (PTC) test, after the initial trial, the CF/PPE combination exhibited a change in path at higher temperatures (125 and 128°C) due to temperature fluctuations, which altered the properties of composites. It is evident that the resistivity (R) ratio exhibits higher values (CF/PPE) for annealing samples (90°C for 5 h). The annealing process resulted in a PTC intensity of 2.53, which was higher than nonannealing (1.94). Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis without annealing procedure revealed a greater number of deformations in the combination, which resulted in decrease in repeatability. The majority of combinations exhibited enthalpy of melting between 114.3 and 116.4 J/g. The annealed combination, which was heated to 128°C, exhibited an increase in enthalpy up to 122.4 J/g. The melting point of both the annealing and nonannealing samples increased from 131 to 134.1°C following the R–T test, while the crystallization temperature remained unaffected.
