Carbon nanotubes, CNT‘s, have attracted much attention more for their believed promising application than for their, though unique, structure and their excellent, mechanical,electrical and thermal properties. Most of these properties are closely related with its anisotropic structure; their form factor and their nano-scale size are critical for understanding their behavior in solutions as well as in polymer composites. However, in the general case of polymer-based composites, polymer/solid interactions, rubber adsorption, chain conformation… are just a few of numerous factors affecting the development of the interphase which controls predominantly the overall macroscopic behavior of such materials. Polymer-CNT‘s, blends are no exception of this frame but with an additional specific factor related to its exceptional size that has to be considered. So, how the nanosize of CNT’s may affect their ability to host adsorbable polymer chains? |
