In this work, the physicochemical properties of nickel-phosphorous (Ni-P) coated carbon fibers were studied. The carbon fibers were synthesized by solution polymerization method with styrene and divinylbenzene. The effect of coating time on electroless Ni-P coated carbon fibers was investigated with XRD, EDX, SEM, and TGA. Also the electrochemical properties of the fibers were measured by cyclic voltammetry. It was indicated that the nickel content were increased with increasing the coating time. It was also found that the nickel coating led to an improvement of thermal stability of the carbon fibers, mainly due to the increase of deposited Ni-P alloys. |
