Abstract:Domestic Aramid Fiber III (DAF III) was modified by oxygen plasma treatment. The effects of oxygen plasma treatment power on fiber surface and DAF III reinforced bismaleimides (BMI) composite interfacial properties were investigated, respectively. The fiber surface characteristics were analyzed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Scanning Electron Microscopy, Atomic Force Microscopy and Dynamic Contact Angles Analysis, respectively. The results showed that oxygen plasma treatment introduced new oxygen containing groups such as C=O and -COO on to the fiber surfaces, changed the fiber surface morphologies and enhanced surface roughness by oxidative reactions and plasma etching. Finally, the fiber surface wettability was effectively improved. The total free energy increased from 49.8 to 71.7mJ/m2 at maximum with 300W oxygen plasma treatment. The composite interlaminar shear strength (ILSS) was evaluated by short beam shear measurement. The ILSS value increased from 49.3 to 59.8MPa (by 21.3%) within 300W plasma treatment.
