Preparation of Nanocomposites of Poly(ε-caprolactone) and Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotubes by Ultrasound Micro-Molding. Influence of Nanotubes on Melting and Crystallization

Ultrasound micro-molding technology was successfully applied to prepare nanocomposites based on a poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) matrix and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs). Optimization of processing parameters (i.e. amplitude, force and time) was crucial to obtain nanocomposites without any evid...
