Popis: The toughening modification of epoxy resin has received widespread attention. The addition of the second-phase resin has a good toughening effect on epoxy resin. In order to investigate the effect of the second-phase resin on the interphase of composites, in this work the interfacial properties of carbon fiber (CF)/epoxy resin with the second-phase resin structure were investigated. Methodologies including surface structure observation, chemical characteristics, surface energy of the CF, and micro-phase structure characterization of resin were tested, followed by the micro-interfacial performance of CF/epoxy composites before and after hygrothermal treatment. The results revealed that the sizing process has the positive effect of increasing the interfacial bonding properties of CF/epoxy. From the interfacial shear strength (IFSS) test, the introduction of the second phase in the resin reduced the interfacial bonding performance between the CF and epoxy. After the hygrothermal treatment, water molecules diffused along the interfacial paths between the two resins, which in turn created defects and consequently brought about a reduction in the IFSS.
