“…[33][34][35] The epoxy/carbon fiber composites have high strength, modulus, toughness, and corrosion resistance. [36][37][38] The enhanced properties depend on the interaction between the epoxy and carbon fibers in the composites. In this regard, the surface modification of carbon fiber can be adopted via chemical, electrochemical, plasma, and thermal techniques.…”

The carbon fibers have been employed to form the high performance composites. The use and compatibility of carbon fibers have gained research interest. Incidentally, the nanocarbon nanostructures such as carbon nanotube, graphene, nanodiamond, and fullerene have been deposited on the carbon fiber surface to increase the interfacial linking with the matrices. Various physical and chemical methods have been used to deposit the nanocarbon on the carbon fiber surface including the chemical vapor deposition, electrospraying, electrophoretic deposition, etc. This review basically highpoints the prospective of the formation of the polymer/fiber composite and polymer/fiber/nanofiller nanocomposite for the advanced structures. The effect of the addition of the nanocarbon on the properties of the polymer/carbon fiber materials have been observed. Specifically, the morphology, strength, toughness, storage modulus, thermal stability, and other physical characteristics have been observed. Moreover, the interfacial adhesion and resulting interfacial features of the polymer/fiber/nanofiller nanocomposite have also been perceived.

This research discusses the development of a high performance composite out of waste plastic that is ultralightweight, thermally insulated, and high impact resistant. Polycarbonate sheet and Cross-linked Polyethylene (XLPE) foam were combined to create the composite, and silicon adhesive was used to fabricate the composite. Polycarbonate sheets are high impact resistant material, high thermal insulation is provided by XLPE foam, and silicon adhesive is used because of its low thermal conductivity. The composite was fabricated using a stacking technique. The composite prototype was then evaluated by experimenting it to dry ice at a temperature of −78.6°C. Drop tests, compression tests, density measurements was carried out, and thermal analysis was carried out using thermogravimetric analysis. The sample can endure low temperatures while maintaining room temperature on the other side, according to a 24 h dry ice test, whilst a drop test demonstrated that it can withstand significant impact loads. A numerical simulation using Abaqus/Explicit was also used to validate the variations in temperature between the outside surface at −20°C and the inside surface maintained at 30°C of the composites when exposed to cold temperature. The result reveals that the hybrid composite are highly promising in terms of thermal insulation.

“…With the development of a pre-impregnated (prepreg) fiber filament by the Markforged company and others, the possibility for printing carbon fiber was further enabled. A lot of research has gone into the evaluation of material properties [3,4], optimization of the printing process [5], printing hardware [2] and some investigations have been made into waste recycling [6,7]. Currently, a major bottleneck is the fact that classical 3D-Slicers lack adapted path planning methods [8,9].…”

A Set of Novel Procedures for Carbon Fiber Reinforcement on Complex Curved Surfaces Using Multi Axis Additive Manufacturing

There has been considerable research in recent years on the additive manufacturing (AM) of carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) parts based on the process of fused deposition modeling (FDM). The currently-applied steps within the manufacturing pipeline, such as slicing and path planning, consider only the planar case of filament deposition and mostly make no use of the possibility to place single pre-impregnated (prepreg) filaments. Classical methods such as tape-laying and laminating struggle with highly curved and complex geometries and require the costly production of molds, whereas when using AM, these geometries can be realized more easily and molds can be created using the same process. In this paper, a set of algorithms is presented that aims to resolve these problems. Criteria are formulated which enable the goal oriented development and evaluation of the presented methods and represent metrics for future methods. The developed algorithms enable the use of both continuous and discontinuous fiber patches in a much wider range of applications in designing and manufacturing of CFRPs. This opens up new possibilities in this promising field. The developed metrics and infrastructure further constitute progress in the field of multi-axis non-planar path planning for slicing algorithms in general and the conducted evaluation proves the formal applicability of the developed algorithms.
