Efficient Load Transfer to Polymer‐Grafted Multiwalled Carbon Nanotubes in Polymer Composites

Hwang, G. L., Shieh, Y.‐T., Hwang, K. C.·2004·Advanced Functional Materials

Abstract

Multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) grafted with poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) were synthesized by emulsion reactions and used as a reinforcement for commercial PMMA. Both scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) revealed that the applied tensile load on the composites was transferred to the PMMA‐grafted MWNTs, leading to a strain failure of the MWNTs rather than an adhesive failure between the MWNTs and the matrix. Dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) data showed that the storage modulus at 20 °C of the PMMA composite containing 20 wt.‐% of the PMMA‐grafted MWNTs was significantly enhanced by ∼ 29 GPa (or by ∼ 1100 %) as compared with commercial PMMA.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
