This work is concerned with the study of the strength of nanocoated reinforcing fibers. In more detail, glass fibers were coated with an efficient thermoelectric (TE) ink in order to create multifunctional reinforcing fibers for advanced composite structural applications. The main scope is to evaluate the fracture properties of the TE-enabled hierarchical glass fibers. The hybrid nanocrystal TE ink was synthesized via a solvothermal reaction and further fully characterized in coating form. The morphology and wetting properties of the TE ink deposition onto glass fibers were evaluated via SEM and contact angle measurements. Enhanced values by 19.4% in tensile strength for the coated glass fibers compared to the reference are being reported, measured at single fiber level. The evaluated multifunctional glass fiber strength will be utilised during ongoing research for the interfacial shear strength determination. |
