Electrochemical Polymerization and Deposition on Carbon Fibers.
Abstract
The electrodic polymerization on carbon fibers of a variety of monomers having different functional groups has been investigated. The objective was to demonstrate the effect of such polymer coating on the properties of polymer composites prepared from the coated fibers. The electropolymerization of novel monomers encountered in this study was pursued in some detail. In addition to usual vinyl polymerizations, some novel cyclic monomers were identified as capable of producing the desired polymer layer on fiber under appropriate polymerization conditions. In many instances, grafting of the surface polymer to the fiber was observed.
