Effective amino-functionalization of carbon nanotubes for reinforcing epoxy polymer composites
TL;DR: An effective functionalization method was investigated to take full advantage of the exceptional performance of both carbon nanotubes and epoxy polymer for composite application, and a significant improvement in the elastic modulus of the nanocomposite suggested an effective way to realize an industrial application of nanot tubes reinforcing epoxy composite.
