An instrumented indentation technique was tested on three types of carbon nanotube/nanofiber-reinforced composites to investigate its applicability for measuring mechanical properties (elastic modulus and hardness). There was good agreement in the measured elastic modulus between the instrumented indentation and uniaxial tension tests for the case of a nanocomposite with a harder epoxy matrix material...
The potential use of carbon nanotubes and nanofibers as smart composite materials is discussed in this paper. An overview of the properties of carbon nanotube materials is presented, and then four applications under development are briefly discussed. The first application is electrochemical actuation in dry and aqueous environments. The second is a carbon nanotube polymer piezoresistive strain sensor...
