Thermal and viscoelastic behaviors of nanotube-reinforced polyethylene composite
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 28 January 2011
Abstract
The effect of processing (shear) time on the mechanical behavior and thermal stability of multiwalled nanotube reinforced polyethylene was investigated. It was observed that the mechanical property (storage modulus, loss modulus) of the composites is process dependant whereas the thermal stability does not. The increase in mechanical behavior is attributed to a stronger interface between the nanotube and the polymer matrix.
