Abstract This review is an audit of various Carbon fibers (CF) surface modification techniques that have been attempted and which produced results with an enhancement in the interfacial characteristics of CFRP systems. An introduction to the CF surface morphology, various techniques of modifications, their results and challenges are discussed here. CFs are emerging as the most promising materials for designing many technologically significant materials for current and future generations. In order to extract all the physic-mechanical properties of CF, it is essential to modulate a suitable environment through which good interfacial relation is achieved between the CF and the matrix. The interface has the utmost significance in composites and hybrid materials since tension at the interface can result in a deterioration of the fundamental properties. This review is aimed to provide a detailed understanding of the CF structure, its possible ways of modification, and the influence of interfacial compatibility in physic-mechanical and tribological properties. Both physical and chemical modifications are illustrated with specific examples, in addition to the characterization methods. Overall, this article provides key information about the CF based composite fabrication and their many applications in aerospace and electronics- where light weight and excellent mechanical strength are required.
