Abstract:
Aramid fiber reinforced epoxy composites have gained significant attention due to their excellent mechanical properties and low density. However, the performance of these composites can be further improved by modifying the surface and interface interactions. This review article provides an overview of various surface and interface modifications that have been employed to enhance the mechanical, thermal, and interfacial properties of aramid fiber reinforced epoxy composites. The methods discussed include surface treatments, interfacial adhesion promoters, and nanomaterial reinforcements. The impact of these modifications on the overall performance of the composites is thoroughly discussed, providing insights into the future directions for optimizing the properties of these advanced materials.
