Control of the interfacial properties is crucial for inorganic-organic composites. We studied the interfacial adhesion between inorganic surfaces grafted with macromolecular coatings and a given epoxy matrix. The aim was to develop a better understanding of adhesion principles in (fiber-reinforced) composites and thus optimizing composites.
Thiol-ene photochemistry was utilized to introduce a polymeric gradient on silica-like surfaces following a two-step approach by Schlaad et al. without additional initiator. Two grafting-techniques were applied: "Grafting-from" polymerization resulted in brush-like homopolymer films, whereas, "grafting-onto" deposition was suitable for diblock copolymer attachment. Both techniques were adapted to modify fiberglass. The resulting coating morphologies were nanostructurally characterized (AFM, SEM, SE, TGA). The interfacial shear strength of modified fibers in an epoxy matrix was measured by a single fiber pull-out experiment to benchmark the non-covalent fiber-matrix construction.
