Synergistic interactions of citric acid grafted β-cyclodextrin and polyethyleneimine for improving interfacial properties of basalt fiber/epoxy composites
Composites Science and Technology(2024)
摘要
Basalt fiber responds well to the global concept of environmental protection due to its attractive superiorities of green and excellent mechanical performance. However, the ultra-low interfacial adhesion strength of fiber-to-matrix deeply restricts its wide application. Moreover, attempts to utilize natural- or bio-materials on basalt fiber towards growth in interfacial adhesion remains in its infancy, if feasible, it would make green materials shine brilliantly. Herein, we install citric acid modified β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) and polyethyleneimine (PEI) on basalt fiber via dipping approach for the first time, which results in 76.9% increment in fiber-to-epoxy adhesion over control fiber. Unique inner hydrophobic and outer hydrophilic conical cavity architecture of β-CD endows interphase with dense ring hydrogen bond band “core”- covalent/ionic bonding “shell” multiple interactions that balance stress transfer and energy dissipation. Additionally, “rigid” β-CD and “flexible” PEI function as crack deflection and stress distribution for gaining stronger interphase of basalt fiber composites. This paper serves to provide a new exploitation for advancing green and high-performance composites.
