Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
In the current study, we investigated the influences of chemical vapor deposition parameters on the formation of uniform structures of few- and multi-layer graphene (FLG and MLG) as a coating phase on carbon fiber (CF). To this end, the process conditions of the chemical vapor deposition method, such as catalyst concentration, reaction temperature and time, and also carbon source flow rate, were optimized. The resulting FLG and MLG with high yields led to the modification of the CF surface by improving its properties. By applying scanning electronic microscopy, transmission electron microscopy and Raman spectroscopy, the surface morphology and structural information of the G-CF were analyzed. It was observed that under different conditions the FLG-CF and MLG-CF were obtained with 54%, 58% yields and also 10.21 m g, 8.78 m g BET surface areas, respectively. Besides that, the FLG-CF and MLG-CF were used as fillers in the polypropylene (PP) composite and the effects of the number of graphene layers on the mechanical and thermal properties of the composite were analyzed. It is noteworthy to mention, composites based on the CF coated with G with only a few layers presented the highest surface area, strength and thermal resistance compared to those based on multi layers.
