Sustainable two‐step functionalization of carbon fibers (CFs) with polyethyleneimine and investigation of curing kinetics in composite materials

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
We followed the functionalization steps outlined in the figure to obtain carbon fibers (CFs) functionalized with branched polyethyleneimine (b‐PEI). The entire process was carried out under mild conditions, including plasma activation and low‐temperature heating, using an eco‐friendly solvent (water).
