Abstract:Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) and functionalized multiwalled carbon nanotube (F‐MWCNT) based composite films were prepared using solution casting method. Nanoindentation and scratch measurements were carried out to study the influence of F‐MWCNT as the reinforcement on the mechanical properties of the composite at the sub‐micron scale. The composites were prepared with varying weight percentages of F‐MWCNT in the PMMA matrix. The composites containing an adequate amount (0.25 wt%) of F‐MWCNT was found to demonstrate the maximum nanomechanical properties, viz. hardness, elastic modulus, recovery index. Scratch resistance measured in terms of coefficient of friction, also showed maximum value for the PMMA composite reinforced with 0.25 wt% of F‐MWCNT. POLYM.
