According to the development trend of modern car body, the future car body will be composed of steel, aluminum‐magnesium alloy, plastic, carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP), and other lightweight materials. Hybrid material body represents the latest development trend of car body structure in the future. With the development of lightweight technology, the application of carbon fiber composite material in automobile bodies is increasing due to its exceptional performance. Therefore, the joining of carbon fiber sheets with dissimilar sheets process in the hybrid material body is a key technical problem that needs to be solved. In this paper, the existing joining processes of adhesive process, mechanical joining, welding process, and hybrid joining for carbon fiber composites are reviewed; the principle, development, advantages, and shortcomings of each process for carbon fiber composites joining processes are systematically described; and the latest progress of the joining process are introduced. The purpose is tantamount to broaden the application range of carbon fiber sheets with dissimilar sheets and provide reference for its extensive application in the development of hybrid car body and lightweight.

“…Lightweight materials are the eternal goal of the aerospace field, where even the reduction of each gram is rigorously considered [ 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 ]. As the applications of resin matrix composites, mainly carbon or glass fiber-reinforced polymers (CFRP or GFRP), have increased in aerospace component manufacturing, the preparation of high-strength heterojunctions between metals and thermoplastics has become a major concern [ 6 , 7 , 8 ]. After decades of development, laser joining technology emerged from various joining technologies due to its advantages, such as non-contact methodology, high flexibility, high efficiency, and environmental friendliness [ 9 , 10 ].…”

The generation of high-performance heterojunctions between high-strength resin matrix composites and metals is of great significance for lightweight applications in fields such as aerospace and automobile engineering. Herein, we explored the feasibility of employing a laser joining process to achieve high-strength heterojunctions between continuous carbon fiber-reinforced PEEK (CCF30/PEEK) composites and titanium alloy (Ti6Al4V). A joint strength of over 50 MPa was achieved through constructing mechanical interlocking structures between CCF30/PEEK and Ti6Al4V. Tensile tests revealed that the fracture of joints was mainly ascribed to the detachment of carbon fibers from the resin matrix and the breakage of carbon fibers. The structures with different orientations and dimensions were confirmed to significantly influence the formation of interlocking structures near the joining interface and the resultant fracture strength of joints. It is believed that the results presented in this study provide a strong foundation for the production of high-performance heterojunctions.

“…In addition, CFRTP presents high productivity compared with epoxy-based carbon fiber-reinforced thermosetting plastics, due to quick injection molding and press molding techniques [ 2 , 3 , 4 ]. The metal-CFRTP hybrid structure is a promising method that can effectively increase vehicles’ lightweight potential and meet safety performance and mechanical properties [ 5 , 6 ]. However, due to the high degree of dissimilarity in physicochemical properties between metallic materials and CFRTP, the possibility of the joining process is indeed a great challenge to achieve the intended results [ 7 , 8 ].…”

Due to the high degree of dissimilarity in physicochemical properties between metal and carbon fiber, it presents a tremendous challenge to join them directly. In this paper, cold rolled steel (SPCC) and carbon fiber reinforced thermoplastic (CFRTP) chopped sheet hybrid joints were produced with the addition of Nylon 6 (PA6) thermoplastic film as an intermediate layer by the ultrasonic plastic welding method. The effect of ultrasonic welding energy and preheating temperature on the hybrid joint microstructure and mechanical behavior was well investigated. The suitable joining parameters could obtain a strong joint by adding the PA6 film as an intermediate layer between the SPCC and bare carbon fibers. Microstructural analysis revealed that the interface joining condition between the PA6 film and the SPCC component is the primary reason for the joint strength. The crevices generated at the interface were eliminated when the preheating temperature arrived at 200 °C, and the joint strength thus significantly increased. The lap shear test results under quasi-static loading showed that the welding energy and preheating temperature synergistically affect the joint performances. At 240 °C, the joint strength value reached the maximum. Through the analysis of the microstructure morphology, mechanical performance, and the failure mechanism of the joint, the optimized joining process window for ultrasonic plastic welding of SPCC-CFRTP by adding an intermediate layer, was obtained.
