| 20120123020 | MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF EPOXY FILLED WITH FUNCTIONALIZED CARBON NANOTUBES - The present invention deals with a methodology of incorporating carbon nanotubes (CNTs) into an epoxy matrix and thereby producing epoxy-based CNT nanocomposites. Both the pristine and ozonized CNTs are almost homogeneously dispersed into the resin by this approach. Compared with the pristine CNTs (p-MWCNTs), the ozonized ones (f-MWCNTs) offer considerable improvements on mechanical properties within the epoxy resin. | 05-17-2012 |
