A series of polymer-matrix composites were synthesized by using a variety of carbon nanotubes (single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs), double-walled carbon nanotubes (DWCNTs) and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs)) and a polymer matrix (either polystyrene (PS) or poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA)). Different surfactants and polymerization methods were ...
Single and multi walled carbon nanotubes were prepared using the floating catalyst chemical vapor deposition method and were subsequently added to polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) to generate a composite material. The thermal properties of these composite materials were studied. The effect of acid treatment on these composite ...
