As an alternative to petroleum-based compatibilizing agents, we developed lignin derivatives for compatibilizing agents of carbon fiber-reinforced plastics that have thermoplasticity. In this study, alkyl chains were introduced into alkali lignin at various ratios to optimize the compatibility of the lignin derivatives with both polypropylene and carbon fiber. The interfacial shear strength between the two materials was improved from 8.2 to 17.2 MPa by mixing with the optimized lignin derivative. The value is comparable to that achieved with a typical petroleum-based compatibilizing agent (18.3 MPa).
