POLYMER NANOCOMPOSITES BASED ON FUNCTIONALIZED CARBON NANOTUBES (2010, background): “Since the discovery of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) in 1991 by Iijima [1], they have received much attention for their many potential applications, such as nanoelectronic and photovoltaic devices [2,3], superconductors [4], electromechanical actuators [5], electrochemical capacitors [6], nanowires [7], a”
The present status and key problems of carbon nanotube based polymer composites (2007, background): “Secondary crystallites, which were nucleated from the MWNTs and might grow during hot drawing, were much more mobile than the extended PE crystals and led to a significantly enhanced ductility and hence an increase in strain energy of the composite film [78].”
Polymer and ceramic nanocomposites for aerospace applications (2017, methodology): “CNTs have typically 500 times more surface area based on equivalent volume of a carbon fiber with high aspect ratio (Andrews and Weisenberger 2004).”
Carbon Nanotube Reinforced Titanium Metal Matrix Composites Prepared by Powder Metallurgy—A Review (2015, background): “Applied load on metal matrix composites is transferred to reinforcement through the metal matrix.(42,85,86) In this regard the metal-reinforcement interface plays a vital role in determining the final properties and load-carrying capabilities of composites.”
