Abstract

Graphene-related materials (GRMs) have been described as an excellent nano-reinforcement for fiber-reinforced polymers in various engineering applications. The remarkable properties of GRMs, for example, their enormous surface region, high mechanical quality, and low assembling expense carry them to be recognized nano-reinforcements for fiber-reinforced polymers to shape multi-functional and multiscale composites. The axiomatic design concept is used to evaluate the parameters that affect the electrophoretic deposition (EPD) system. This study aims to produce deposition of Graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs) onto carbon fiber (CF) fabric surface using electrophoretic deposition (EPD) method for the time constant (5 mins) with different voltage (5V, 10V, 20V, & 30V) and constant voltage (20V) with different deposition time (5 mins, 10 mins, 20 mins, and 30 mins). With previous research paper justification, the amount of deposited GNPs onto the CF surface is predicted to increase gradually with longer deposited time and voltage applied by observing it under a scanning electron microscope (SEM). Besides, the predicted outcome of the colloidal stability of suspension N, N-dimethylformamide (DMF) as an organic solvent and distilled water (DW) as a non-organic solvent that dispersed with GNPs respectively is determined using UV-Vis Spectrophotometer. The result predicted is that the dispersion of GNPs in N, N-dimethylformamide (DMF) suspension is much better compared in the distilled water (DW) suspension within 1 day period after sonication time.
