Role of Molecular Weight in Polymer Wrapping and Dispersion of MWNT in a PVDF Matrix

The thermal and electrical properties of a polymer nanocomposite are highly dependent on the dispersion of the CNT filler in the polymer matrix. Non-covalent functionalisation with a PVP polymer is an excellent driving force towards an effective dispersion of MWNTs in the polymer matrix. It is shown...
