Method For Enhancing Adherence of Carbon Fibers With Respect to an Organic Matrix
First Claim
1. :
- A process for improving the adhesion of carbon fibres with regard to an organic matrix which forms a composite material with these fibres, said composite material being obtained by bringing the fibres into contact with a resin which can be cured by chain polymerization and then polymerizing the resin, which process comprises the grafting to the surface of the fibres, before they are brought into contact with the resin, of groups capable of acting as chain transfer agents during the polymerization of said resin.

Abstract
The invention relates to a process for improving the adhesion of carbon fibres with regard to an organic matrix forming a composite material with these fibres, this composite material being obtained by bringing the fibres into contact with a resin which can be cured by chain polymerization and then polymerizing the resin, which process is characterized in that it comprises the grafting, to the surface of the fibres, before they are brought into contact with the resin, of groups capable of acting as chain transfer agents during the polymerization of said resin.
Fields of application: aeronautical, aerospatial, railway, ship building and automobile industries but also the armaments industry, the industry of sports and leisure articles, and the like.
