Estimation of the Solubility Parameter of Carbon Fiber by Inverse Gas Chromatography
Inverse gas chromatography (IGC) was applied for the determination of the solubility parameter of carbon fiber in this work. A series of solvents with known solubility parameter (8) were chosen as test probes, including n-decane, n-heptane, toluene, ethanol and acetone in this study. The activity coefficients (Ω) and the Flory-Huggins parameters (x) between the carbon fiber and the probes, which calculated from the chromatographic retention volumes of the probes (V~R0), decrease with the system temperature increasing in all the systems in this work. Using the DiPaola and Guillet method, these Flory-Huggins parameters (x) were then used to determine to the carbon fiber solubility parameter (δ). It was found that the solubility parameter (8) of the T700SC carbon fiber was 12. 53 (MPa)1/2,12. 48 (MPa)1/2, 12.50 (MPa)1/2 and (12.59) MPa1/2 at 30℃, 40℃, 50℃ and 60℃, respectively. The variability of these measured solubility parameter is merely about 1-2% from 30 to 60℃ which show that the carbon fiber solubility parameter is not very sensitive to temperature in the covered range.
