The polymer matrix with introduced carbon-based nanofiber displays fascinating properties. They have inspired extensive research on the synthesis of polymer composites, which have been applied in catalysis, electronics, and energy storage. In this re...
Modified nano-TiO2 was prepared by using triethanolamine and tetraisopropyl di (dioctylphosphate) titanate, respectively. Then the poly(p-phenylene benzobisoxazole) (PBO) fibers doped with different additions of modified nano-TiO2 particles were prep...
(1) In order to improve the interface bonding state between poly(p-phenylene benzobisoxazole) (PBO) fibers and a polyimide (PI) polymer matrix, as well as its effectiveness under elevated temperature, rare earth solution (RES) and coupling agent were...
Poly(p-phenylene benzobisoxazole) (PBO) fiber shows fascinating properties including excellent mechanical performance, high crystallinity, and fairly good heat resistance as a kind of polymer fiber. Its properties make it a possible candidate as a pr...
Application of polyacrylonitrile-derived carbon fiber (CF) as a thermal insulation material is restricted by inherently high thermal conductivity. Encapsulation of poly(p-phenylene benzobisoxazole) (PBO) on CF was supposed to improve the mechanical a...
Epoxy resins are widely used in electronic packaging and electrical insulation, but their permanent cross-linked networks and low intrinsic thermal conductivity restrict material recycling and heat dissipation. In this work, a recyclable epoxy compos...
The paper at hand focuses on the tensile behavior of ductile cementitious composites reinforced with short, randomly distributed, polymer fibers and a continuous carbon textile under quasi-static and impact loading. Strain-hardening cement-based comp...
