The main goal of this study is to investigate the doping effects of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and graphene on the needle-punched carbon/carbon (C/C) composites that are prepared by liquid-phase impregnation. In order to achieve, for the C/C composites, the purposes of high flexural strength, stable friction coefficient, low weight loss, and high thermal conductivity, our primary concern is to examine the flexural properties and the tribological performance, and then to explore a little further into the influence on thermal conductivity. In this study, carbon fiber preforms were first fabricated by needle-punched carbon-fiber cloth, and then liquid-phase phenolic resin, doped with different proportions of carbon nanotubes and graphene, was used as the impregnation solution to carry out multiple densification (impregnation–carbonization) cycles and fabricate various C/C composites. The main purpose was to probe into the doping effects of the CNTs and graphene, added to the impregnation solution, on the properties of C/C composites. The experimental results show that the addition of CNTs and graphene can improve the heat conductivity, flexural properties, and tribological performance of C/C composites, and the impact on these properties is more significant with the addition. Furthermore, the properties of graphene-doped C/C specimens are better than those of CNT-doped C/C specimens. |
