CONDUCTIVE FIBER REINFORCED POLYMER COMPOSITE AND MULTIFUNCTIONAL COMPOSITE

摘要

A fiber reinforced polymer composition is provided comprising a fiber and an adhesive composition, wherein the adhesive composition comprises at least a thermosetting resin, a curing agent, and an interfacial material comprising a conductive material. When cured the fiber reinforced polymer composition has a z-direction electrical conductivity of at least 1 S/m and the adhesive composition forms good bonds to the reinforcing fiber. An interfacial region between the reinforcing fiber and the adhesive composition comprises the interfacial material. Additional embodiments include a conductive prepreg, a multifunctional prepreg having both load-carrying and non-load carrying functions and a method of manufacturing a composite article by curing the adhesive composition and the reinforcing fiber.
