Coating of carbon nanotube fibers: variation of tensile properties, failure behavior and adhesion strength

An experimental study of the tensile properties of CNT fibers and their interphasial behavior in epoxy matrices is reported. One of the most promising applications of CNT fibers is their use as reinforcement in multifunctional composites. For this purpose, an increase of the tensile strength of the...
