Abstract

After a suitable cleaning treatment, high modulus, unsized, polyacrylonitrile-derived carbon fibres were surface-treated by negative d.c. corona discharges under a flow of various nitrogen/oxygen mixtures at ambient pressure and temperature. The surface composition and morphology of the fibres, characterized before and after the treatment by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, X-ray excited Auger spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy, were influenced by several experimental parameters (applied potential, gaseous atmosphere, time of treatment, geometry of the corona apparatus, post-treatment storage conditions, etc.). The matter is discussed in the light of previously published information.
