Description

A Dissertation for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the School of Materials Science and Engineering, Georgia Institute of Technology. DECEMBER 2007. – 221 p.This research is intended to create usable carbon nanotube polymer based composites for structural applications by effectively aligning and dispersing the carbon nanotubes in a polymer matrix. The motivation for this research is to create very lightweight, high strength materials that will surpass their predecessors: carbon fibers. The final product then can be used in applications across the industries.Introduction Background Materials and Materials Characterization Effects of Different Dispersing Agents on Polymer Carbon Nanotube Composites Alignment of Carbon Nanotubes Under Shear Viscous Flow for Polymer and Epoxy Composite Systems Properties of Carbon Nanotube-Polymer Composites Aligned in a Magnetic Fiel Carbon Nanotubes Decorated with Iron (III) Oxide Particles from Sol Gel Processing for Magnetic Applications Magnetic Alignment of Iron (III) Oxide Decorated Carbon Nanotubes Polymer Composites Conclusions Recommendations
