“…For CF sizing the knowledge gained with thermoplastic modified EPs was adapted recently. Various thermoplastic polymers, including polyaryletherketones (PAEK), can be used as disperse phase tougheners for EP [13]. When such polymers are used in the sizing then the interfacial fracture toughness may also be improved.…”

This review summarizes the recent (from year 2000) advancements in the interphase tailoring of fiber-reinforced polymer composites. The scientific and technological achievements are classified on the basis of the selected strategies distinguishing between i) interphase tailoring via sizing/coating on fibers, ii) creation of hierarchical fibers by nanostructures, iii) fiber surface modifications by polymer deposition and iv) potential effects of matrix modifications on the interphase formation. Special attention was paid to report on efforts dedicated to the creation on (multi)functional interphase in polymer composites. This review is round up by listing current trends in the characterization and modelling of the interphase. In the final outlook, future opportunities and challenges in the engineering of fiber/matrix interphase are summarized.

Abstract. We introduced a general concept to create smart, (multi)functional interphases in polymer composites with layered reinforcements, making use of 3D printing. The concept can be adapted for both thermoplastic and thermoset matrix-based composites with either thermoplastic-or thermoset-enriched interphases. We showed feasibility using an example of a composite containing a thermoset matrix/thermoplastic interphase. Carbon fiber unidirectional reinforcing layers were patterned with poly(ɛ-caprolactone) (PCL) through 3D printing, then infiltrated with an amine-cured epoxy (EP). The corresponding composites were subjected to static and dynamic flexure tests. The PCL-rich interphase markedly improved the ductility in static tests without deteriorating the flexural properties. Its effect was marginal in Charpy impact tests, which can be explained with effects of specimen and PCL pattern sizes. The PCL-rich interphase ensured self-healing when triggered by heat treatment above the melting temperature of PCL.

“…Great variety of thermoplastic polymers has been tried to modify EPs, such as polymethyl methacrylate, linear (co)polyesters, polyethylene oxide, poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL), polyoxymethylene, polyamide, styrene copolymers, polyphenylene oxide, and various high temperature resistant thermoplastics (mostly amorphous ones) [26]. Interestingly, thermoplastic modified EPs were not yet subjected to SM testing.…”
