Investigation of the Effect of the Length and Content of Carbon Fibers on the Properties of Polyphenylene Sulfide

Abstract:

The article presents the results of a study of the effect of milled and chopped carbon fibers, with an average particle length of 0.2 and , respectively, on the mechanical properties of polyphenylene sulfide and its heat resistance. It was found that the introduction of carbon fibers leads to a significant decrease in the melt flow rate. It was shown that after a sharp decrease in impact strength at 10 % content of carbon fibers, its inverse improvement occurs with an increase in the filler content. Composites containing carbon fibers with length demonstrate higher impact strength. The introduction of a filler leads to a significant increase in the elastic modulus and strength of polyphenylene sulfide and its heat resistance.
