Lignin as a Functional Green Coating on Carbon Fiber Surface to Improve Interfacial Adhesion in Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymers
While intensive efforts are made to prepare carbon fiber reinforced plastics from renewable sources, less emphasis is directed towards elaborating green approaches for carbon fiber surface modification to improve the interfacial adhesion in these composites. In this study, we covalently attach lignin, a renewable feedstock, to a graphitic surface for the first time. The covalent bond is established via aromatic anchoring groups with amine functions taking part in a nucleophilic displacement reaction with a tosylated lignin derivative. The successful grafting procedures were confirmed by cyclic voltammetry, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and field emission scanning electron microscopy coupled with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. Both fragmentation and microdroplet tests were conducted to evaluate the interfacial shear strength of lignin coated carbon fiber samples embedded in a green cellulose propionate matrix and in a commercially used epoxy resin. The microdroplet test showed ~27% and ~65% increases in interfacial shear strength for the epoxy and cellulose propionate matrix, respectively. For the epoxy matrix covalent bond, it is expected to form with lignin, while for the cellulosic matrix hydrogen bond formation might take place; furthermore, plastisizing effects are also considered. Our study opens the gates for utilizing lignin coating to improve the shear tolerance of innovative composites

The nature of the Pacific plate as subduction inputs to the northeastern Japan arc and its implication for subduction zone processes
Abstract Devastating megathrust earthquakes and slow earthquakes both occur along subducting plate interfaces. These interplate seismic activities are strongly dependent on the nature of the plate interface, such as the shape of the plate interface and the materials and physical conditions along the plate interface. The oceanic plate, which is the input to the subduction zone, is the first order control on the nature of the plate interface. To reveal the nature of the subduction inputs to the northeastern Japan arc, we have conducted large-scale controlled-source seismic surveys of the northwestern part of the oceanic Pacific plate. The obtained seismic data have revealed (1) oceanic plate structural evolution caused by plate bending prior to subduction, suggesting the promotion of the oceanic plate hydration; (2) spatial variation of the oceanic plate structure, such as variations in the thickness of sediment and crust; (3) that the spatial variations are caused by both ancient plate formation processes and more recent volcanic activities; and (4) that spatial variations of the nature of the subduction inputs show good correlation with the along-strike variations in the seismic structure and seismic activities after subduction, including the coseismic slip distribution of the 2011 Tohoku earthquakes and the structural differences between the northern and the southern Japan Trench. These observations indicate that the incoming oceanic plate structure is much more spatially variable than previously thought and also imply that the spatial variation of the subduction inputs is a key controlling factor of the spatial variation of various processes in subduction zones, including interplate seismic activities and evolution of the forearc structure
