Composites of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) in ABC block terpolymer matrices of different compositions are studied. The composites were obtained by dispersion of MWCNTs in poly(styrene-block-butadiene-block-methyl methacrylate) (SBM) in a selective solvent for the M block, followed by solvent evaporation and compression molding. The structures of the MWCNT/SBM composites are investigated...
Masterbatches of reactive polymers containing carbon nanotubes are used to prepare nanocomposites by reactive blending. By mixing masterbatches of low molecular-weight amino-terminated polyamide-6 (PA6) containing ∼10 wt% or ∼17 wt% of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNT) with maleic anhydride functionalized polyethylene (PE*) at temperatures above melting of PA6 it is possible to obtain fine and...
We report a versatile method to achieve strong and tough structured composites by the use of ABC block terpolymers. First, multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNT) have been dispersed in solution by poly(styrene-block-butadiene-block-methyl methacrylate) (SBM). The influence of the solvent quality and the block molecular weights have been optimized to obtain long time stability of MWNT suspensions. Electron...
We show that crystal organization on both micro and nanoscales can be profoundly modified by dispersing carbon nanotubes (CNTs) in polyamide-6 by melt compounding. X-ray diffraction and transmission and scanning electron microscopies all indicate that when CNTs are well dispersed, crystalline spherulites are not present and remarkably crystalline lamellae grow aligning perpendicularly to the surface...
