Problems solved by technology

[0004] At present, the process methods applied to carbon fiber copper plating include: electroless plating, electroplating, electroless plating-electroplating, and two-step electroplating, etc. These processes are complicated, costly, pollute the environment, and the quality of the copper plating layer is average.
[0005] However, for copper plating on the surface of carbon fiber, due to the high roughness of the carbon fiber surface, it will affect the degree of tight bonding between the coating and the carbon fiber.

Abstract

The invention discloses a preparation method of a carbon fiber uniformly-electroplated copper layer. The method comprises the steps: (1) desizing carbon fibers; (2) fixing the carbon fibers; and (3) taking the carbon fibers as a cathode and a phosphor copper plate as an anode, connecting a circuit, putting the connected circuit into an electroplating bath containing an electroplating liquid, adjusting the distance between the cathode and the anode to be 4-10 cm, keeping the current density to be 0.80-1.00 mA / cm<2>, the voltage to be 1.5-3.0 V and the electroplating temperature to be 10-30 DEGC, and electroplating for 60-90 min, wherein the electroplating liquid comprises CuSO4.5H2O, C4H4O6KNa.4H2O, C6H5Na3O7.2H2O, KNO3, polyethylene glycol, NaCl and water. According to the method, by controlling the components, the concentration and the current density of the electroplating liquid, the thickness, the uniformity and the surface appearance of the electroplated carbon fiber copper plating layer can be changed, the binding force of the plating layer is good and uniform, and the carbon fibers cannot be bonded.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for electroplating copper, in particular to a method for preparing a uniform electroplated copper layer of carbon fibers. Background technique [0002] The composite material with carbon fiber as reinforcement has high specific strength, high specific modulus and excellent heat resistance, and is an ideal engineering material. However, the wettability and compatibility between carbon fibers and various matrices are poor, so that the external load cannot be transmitted to the bearing fibers through the matrix, and the fibers do not play a reinforcing role but weaken the performance of the matrix. In addition, carbon fiber can undergo graphite transformation at a certain temperature in some catalytic matrix (such as Fe, Ni), and a brittle reaction layer is formed at the two-phase interface, which significantly reduces the mechanical properties of the composite material. [0003] In order to solve the above problems, one...
