In this work, multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), as reinforcing agent, were blended with linear low‐density polyethylene (LLDPE), then molded by hot compression molding to prepare LLDPE/MWCNTs composites. Tensile tests indicate that the strength, Young's modulus, and toughness are all improved for LLDPE/MWCNTs composites containing 1 and 3 wt % MWCNTs. Compared with LLDPE, the Young's modulus of LLDPE/MWCNTs composites rises from 144.8 to 270.8 MPa at 1 wt % MWCNTs content. At the same time, increases of 18.5% in tensile strength and 16.6% in yield strength are achieved. Additionally, its toughness is enhanced by 26.7% than that of LLDPE. Microstructure characterizations, including differential scanning calorimetry, X‐ray diffraction, and scanning electron microscopy were performed to investigate the variations of microstructure and further to establish the relationship between microstructure and mechanical properties. Homogeneous dispersion of MWCNTs, network formation, and development of an oriented nanohybrid shish‐kebab structure contribute to the enhanced strength and toughness. The increased crystallinity is beneficial to the reinforcement and increased modulus. Additionally, the thermal stability of the LLDPE/MWCNTs composites is enhanced as well. This work suggests a promising routine to optimize polymer/MWCNTs composites by tailoring the structural development. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2017 , 134, 45525.  相似文献

In the present work, chitosan (CS)‐grafted multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) nanocomposites were prepared via covalently bonded CS onto MWCNTs that had weight fractions of MWCNTs ranging from 0.1 to 3.0 wt % by a simple method of solution casting. The structure, morphology, and mechanical properties of the films were investigated by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy, optical microscopy, wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction, contact angle, and tensile testing. The results indicated that the CS chains were attached onto the MWCNTs successfully via covalent linkages. More interestingly, the MWCNTs provided a matrix that facilitated the crystallization of CS. Compared with the pure CS, the tensile strength and Young's modulus of the nanocomposites were enhanced significantly from 39.6 to 105.6 MPa and from 2.01 to 4.22 GPa with an increase in the MWCNT loading level from 0 to 3.0 wt %, respectively. The improvement in the tensile strength and modulus were ascribed to the uniform dispersion of MWCNTs covalently linked to the CS matrix. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Microstructural characterization of corn starch‐based porous thermoplastic (TPS) composites containing various contents (0.1, 0.5, and 1 wt %) of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) was performed. Corn starch was plasticized with a proper combination of glycerol and stearic acid. TPS composites with MWCNT were prepared conducting melt extrusion followed by injection molding. TPS containing 1 wt % of MWCNTs exhibited higher tensile strength and elastic modulus values than neat TPS. Moreover, TPS electrical conductivity was determined to increase with increasing content of MWCNTs. X‐ray diffraction measurements revealed that incorporation of MWCNTs increased the degree of TPS crsystallinity to some extent. Scanning electron microscopy examination revealed that MWCNT altered TPS surface morphology and tensile failure modes, significantly. Transmission electron microscopy investigation showed that dispersion characteristics of MWCNTs within TPS were in the form of tiny clusters around micro pores of TPS, which is considered influential on electrical conductivity of the resulting composites. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were functionalized with glucose using a covalent, non-specific functionalization approach. Fourier-transformed infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) confirmed that glucose structures were covalently attached to CNTs. Hydroxylated poly(amide-imide) (PAI)-based composites were developed by dispersing of glucose-functionalized MWCNTs (MWCNTs-Gl) as reinforcement in different concentrations varying from 5 to 15 wt.%. Nanocomposites have slightly higher degree of crystallinity than neat PAI and their thermo-oxidative stability was significantly affected by the addition of MWCNTs-Gl. According to mechanical tensile tests, the tensile strength and the Young's modulus of the MWCNT-Gl/PAI composites were increased with increasing MWCNTs-Gl content. The tensile strength remarkably increased from 81 to 129 MPa, which was about 59% higher than that of the neat PAI, with the addition of MWCNT-Gl contents within 15 wt.% and the elongation at break decreased about 0.2% at a 5 wt.% loading of MWCNT-Gl in comparison with the pure PAI film.  相似文献

The effect of processing method and condition on the dispersion status of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), and mechanical properties of the MWCNT/polyamide 6 (PA6) composites are investigated. Different melt processing conditions are used to dilute the master batch produced by melt process or in situ polymerization. Both MWCNTs and carboxyl group functionalized MWCNTs (MWCNTs‐COOH) are compounded with PA6 at different loadings (0.1, 0.25, 0.5, and 0.75 wt %) to study the effect of chemical modification of MWCNTs on the mechanical properties of the final composites. It is demonstrated that chemical modification of MWCNTs has a positive effect on the strength of the composites as an increase of 5–10 MPa was observed. More importantly, a near 5 MPa increase in strength and more importantly, a maximum of 138% increase in strain at break were observed for the composites produced by in situ polymerization, indicating a toughening and strengthening effect of CNT on the composites. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs), with their high aspect ratio and exceptionally high mechanical properties, are excellent fillers for composite reinforcement if they are uniformly dispersed without aggregation. Combining the latex compounding and self-assembly techniques, we prepared a novel natural rubber (NR)/multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) composite. Before self-assembly, the MWCNTs were treated with mixed acid to ensure that the MWCNTs were negatively charged under an alkaline environment. The structure of the MWCNTs was tested with Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The properties of composites with different MWCNT loadings were characterized with transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, and tensile testing. The results indicate that the MWCNTs were homogeneously distributed throughout the NR matrix as single tubes and had good interfacial adhesion with the NR phase when the MWCNT loading was less than 3 wt %. In particular, the addition of the MWCNT led to a remarkable reinforcement in the tensile strength, with a peak value of 31.4 MPa for an MWCNT content of 2 wt %, compared to the pure prevulcanized NR (tensile strength = 21.9 MPa). The nanocomposites reinforced with MWCNTs should have wide applications because of the notable improvement in these important properties. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

In this work we have studied the utilization of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) as filler‐reinforcement to improve the performance of plasticized starch (PS). The PS/MWCNTs nanocomposites were successfully prepared by a simple method of solution casting and evaporation. The morphology, thermal behavior, and mechanical properties of the films were investigated by means of scanning electron microscopy, wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction, differential scanning calorimetry, and tensile testing. The results indicated that the MWCNTs dispersed homogeneously in the PS matrix and formed strong hydrogen bonding with PS molecules. Compared with the pure PS, the tensile strength and Young's modulus of the nanocomposites were enhanced significantly from 2.85 to 4.73 MPa and from 20.74 to 39.18 MPa with an increase in MWCNTs content from 0 to 3.0 wt %, respectively. The value of elongation at break of the nanocomposites was higher than that of PS and reached a maximum value as the MWCNTs content was at 1.0 wt %. Besides the improvement of mechanical properties, the incorporation of MWCNTs into the PS matrix also led to a decrease of water sensitivity of the PS‐based materials. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

This study investigates the effect of the thiol‐ene click reaction on thermal conductivity and shear strength of the epoxy composites reinforced by various silane‐functionalized hybrids of sulfhydryl‐grafted multi‐walled carbon nanotubes (SH‐MWCNTs) and vinyl‐grafted MWCNTs (CC‐MWCNTs). The results of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Raman spectroscopy, thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) show that the sulfhydryl groups and vinyl groups are successfully grafted onto the surface of MWCNTs, after treatment of MWCNT with triethoxyvinylsilane and 3‐mercaptopropyltrimethoxysilane, respectively. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), HotDisk thermal constant analyzer (HotDisk), optical microscope, and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) are used to characterize the resultant composites. It is demonstrated that the hybrid of 75 wt % SH‐MWCNTs and 25 wt % CC‐MWCNTs has better dispersion and stability in epoxy matrix, and shows a stronger synergistic effect in improving the thermal conductivity of epoxy composite via the thiol‐ene click reaction with 2,2′‐azobis(2‐methylpropionitrile) as thermal initiator. Furthermore, the tensile shear strength results of MWCNT/epoxy composites and the optical microscopy photographs of shear failure section indicate that the composite with the hybrid MWCNTs has higher shear strength than that with raw MWCNTs. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Wheat straw fiber‐polypropylene (PP) composites were prepared to investigate the effects of wheat straw fiber content (10, 20, 30, 40, and 50 wt %), fiber size (9, 28, and 35 mesh), and maleic anhydride grafted polypropylene (MAPP) concentration (1, 2, 5, and 10 wt %) on the static and dynamic mechanical properties of the wheat straw fiber‐PP composites in this study. The tensile modulus and strength of the composites increased linearly with increasing wheat straw fiber content up to 40%, whereas the elongation at break decreased dramatically to 3.78%. Compared with the composites made of the longer wheat straw fiber, the composites made of the fines (>35 mesh) had a slightly higher tensile strength of 31.2 MPa and tensile elongation of 5.39% at break. With increasing MAPP concentration, the composites showed an increase in tensile strength, and the highest tensile strength of 34.0 MPa occurred when the MAPP concentration reached 10 wt %. As wheat straw fiber content increased from 0 to 40%, the flexural modulus of the composites increased gradually from 1335 to 3437 MPa. The MAPP concentration and wheat straw fiber size distribution had no appreciable effect on the static flexural modulus of the composites. The storage flexural modulus of the composites increased with increasing wheat straw fiber content. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM) observation on the fracture surface of the composites indicated that a high wheat straw fiber content (>30 wt %) resulted in fiber agglomeration and a reduction in interfacial bonding strength. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The cutting of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) using solid state shear milling (S3M) method and their strong interfacial interaction with polyamide 6 (PA6) in the solid state were studied. Transmission electron microscopy showed that after milling, the CNTs were greatly reduced in length, and disentangled, being straighter with open ends. Fourier transform infrared spectra and differential scanning calorimeter analysis indicated the existence of strong interfacial interactions between MWCNTs and PA6 of the pan-milled PA6/CNTs powder. It was further quantified by thermogravimetric analysis that about 30 wt.% of PA6 formed a strong combining force with CNTs after pan-milling. The mechanism of cutting CNTs and the reason for their strong interfacial interactions with PA6 in the solid state were discussed. A fine and homogeneous dispersion of CNTs throughout PA6 matrix was observed by scanning electron microscopy. The tensile properties of the composites prepared by the S3M method were significantly improved compared to those of pure PA6 and composites prepared by conventional melt mixing. Upon incorporation of only 1.5 wt.% MWCNTs, the tensile modulus of PA6 was enhanced from 2448 MPa to 4439 MPa, by about 80%, and the tensile strength was increased by about 23%.  相似文献

Dimensional stability, mechanical properties, and melting and crystallization behavior of polypropylene composites filled with sunflower seed cake (SSC) were investigated. Injection molded composites were prepared from the SSC flour and polypropylene with and without maleic anhydride‐grafted polypropylene (MAPP) at 30, 40, 50, and 60 wt % contents of the SSC flour. Twenty‐eight days thickness swelling and water absorption values of the specimens increased by 43 and 56% as the filler content increased from 30 to 60 wt %, respectively. The flexural modulus of the polypropylene composites increased from 3157 to 4363 MPa as the SSC flour increased from 30 to 60 wt %. The maximum flexural strength 38.4 MPa was observed for 40 wt % SSC flour filled specimens. However, further increment in the SCC flour decreased the flexural strength to 31.4 MPa. The tensile strength of the specimens decreased from 22.5 to 14 MPa while the tensile modulus increased from 3023 to 3677 MPa as the SSC flour increased from 30 to 60 wt %. The dimensional stability and mechanical properties of the composites were significantly improved by the incorporation of the coupling agent (MAPP). The effect of the MAPP addition was more pronounced for the strength than for the modulus. The melting temperature and degree of crystallinity of the neat polypropylene decreased with increasing content of the SSC flour. The degree of crystallinity of filled composites considerably increased with the incorporation of the MAPP. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci., 2013  相似文献

Multi‐walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT)/Poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) nanowebs were obtained by electrospinning. For uniform dispersion of MWCNTs in PET solution, MWCNTs were functionalized by acid treatment. Introduction of carboxyl groups onto the surface of MWCNTs was examined by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and X‐ray diffraction (XRD) analysis. MWCNTs were added into 22 wt % PET solution in the ratio of 1, 2, 3 wt % to PET. The morphology of MWCNT/PET nanoweb was observed using field emission‐scanning electron microscopy (FE‐SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The nanofiber diameter decreased with increasing MWCNT concentration. The distribution of the nanofiber diameters showed a bi‐modal shape when MWCNTs were added. Thermal and tensile properties of electrospun MWCNT/PET nanowebs were examined using a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC), thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA), dynamic mechanical analyzer (DMA) and etc. Tensile strength, tensile modulus, thermal stability, and the degree of crystallinity increased with increasing MWCNT concentration. In contrast, elongation at break and cold crystallization temperature showed a contrary tendency. Electric conductivities of the MWCNT/PET nanowebs were in the electrostatic dissipation range. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2008  相似文献

Nanocomposites of isotactic polypropylene (iPP) and multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) with various contents of MWCNTs were fabricated by double molding techniques. X‐ray diffraction measurements reveal a development of α‐crystal with lamellar stacks having a long period of 150 Å in the neat iPP that increases to 165 Å in 2 wt % MWCNTs‐loaded composites, indicating that MWCNTs enhance crystallization of iPP as a nucleating factor. Mechanical properties, such as tensile strength, flexural strength, Young's modulus, tangent modulus, and microhardness are found to increase with increasing MWCNTs content. Thermal analyses represent an increase of crystallization and melting temperatures and a decrease of thermal stability of the composites with increasing MWCNTs. Changes in structural, mechanical, and thermal properties of the composites due to the addition of MWCNTs are elaborately discussed. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2010  相似文献

The effects of different surfactants on the properties of multiwalled carbon nanotubes/polypropylene (MWCNT/PP) nanocomposites prepared by a melt mixing method have been investigated. Sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate (NaDDBS) were used as a means of noncovalent functionalization of MWCNTs to help them to be dispersed uniformly into the PP matrix. The effects of these surfactant‐treated MWCNTs on morphological, rheological, thermal, crystalline, mechanical, and electrical properties of MWCNT/PP composites were studied using field emission scanning electron microscopy, optical microscopy, rheometry, tensile, and electrical conductivity tests. It was found that the surfactant‐treatment and micromixing resulted in a great improvement in the state of dispersion of MWCNTs in the polymer matrix, leading to a significant enhancement of Young's modulus and tensile strength of the composites. For example, with the addition of only 2 wt % of SDS‐treated and NaDDBS‐treated MWCNTs, the Young's modulus of PP increased by 61.1 and 86.1%, respectively. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

This study uses the solution mixing method to combine plasticized polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) as a matrix, and multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) as reinforcement to form PVA/MWCNTs films. The films are then laminated and hot pressed to create PVA/MWCNTs composites. The control group of PVA/MWCNTs composites is made by incorporating the melt compounding method. Diverse properties of PVA/MWCNTs composites are then evaluated. For the experimental group, the incorporation of MWCNTs improves the glass transition temperature (Tg), crystallization temperature, Tc), and thermal stability of the composites. In addition, the test results indicate that composites containing 1.5 wt % of MWCNTs have the maximum tensile strength of 51.1 MPa, whereas composites containing 2 wt % MWCNTs have the optimal electrical conductivity of 2.4 S/cm, and electromagnetic shielding effectiveness (EMI SE) of ?31.41 dB. This study proves that the solution mixing method outperforms the melt compounding method in terms of mechanical properties, dispersion, melting and crystallization behaviors, thermal stability, and EMI SE. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

In this article, we report the mechanical and biocompatibility properties of injection‐molded high‐density polyethylene (HDPE) composites reinforced with 40 wt % ceramic filler [hydroxyapatite (HA) and/or Al2O3] and 2 wt % titanate as a coupling agent. The mechanical property measurements revealed that a combination of a maximum tensile strength of 18.7 MPa and a maximum tensile modulus of about 855 MPa could be achieved with the injection‐molded HDPE–20 wt % HA–20 wt % Al2O3 composites. For the same composite composition, the maximum compression strength was determined to be 71.6 MPa and the compression modulus was about 660 MPa. The fractrography study revealed the uniform distribution of ceramic fillers in the semicrystalline HDPE matrix. The cytocompatibility study with osteoblast‐like SaOS2 cells confirmed extensive cell adhesion and proliferation on the injection‐molded HDPE–20 wt % HA–20 wt % Al2O3 composites. The cell viability analysis with the 3(4,5‐dimethylthiazol‐2‐yl)‐2,5‐diphenyltetrazolium bromide assay revealed a statistically significant difference between the injection‐molded HDPE–20 wt % HA–20 wt % Al2O3 composites and sintered HA for various culture durations of upto 7 days. The difference in cytocompatibility properties among the biocomposites is explained in terms of the difference in the protein absorption behavior. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

This study presents a promising ultraviolet (UV)‐curable epoxy resin formulation with improved flame‐retardant properties. The formulation is based on the cycloaliphatic epoxide 3,4‐epoxycyclohexylmethyl‐3,4‐epoxycyclohexane carboxylate (ERL4221) and a novel silicon, phosphorous containing flame‐retardant additive. The additive, 1,3,5,7‐tetramethyl‐1,3,5,7‐tetra 2‐(6‐oxido‐6‐H‐dibenzo(c,e) (1,2)oxaphosphorin‐6‐yl) ethylcyclotetrasiloxane (DOPO‐SiD), was synthesized by the addition reaction of 1,3,5,7‐tetramethyl‐1,3,5,7‐tetravinylcyclotetrasiloxane (D4Vi) with 9,10‐dihydro‐9‐oxa‐10‐phosphaphenanthrene‐10‐oxide (DOPO). Formulations containing the cycloaliphatic epoxy resin ERL4221 and the flame‐retardant DOPO‐SiD additive were prepared in various concentrations and crosslinked by UV irradiation. The effects of DOPO‐SiD and photoinitiators, such as the cyclopentadienyl iron complex of carbazole (In‐Fe) and diphenyl‐(4‐(phenylthiol) phenyl) sulfonium hexafluorophosphate (In‐S), on the flame‐retardant properties and thermal stabilities of UV‐cured ERL4221/DOPO‐SiD composites were investigated with limiting oxygen index, UL‐94 vertical test, and thermogravimetric analysis, respectively. The results showed that DOPO‐SiD can increase the thermal stabilities of the ERL4221/DOPO‐SiD. The char yield was improved when DOPO‐SiD and In‐Fe were simultaneously used. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2014 , 131, 40011.  相似文献
