ABSTRACT
Different type of Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) long and short were used as reinforcement in epoxy
resin with weight percentages ( 0.1,0.2,0.5,1.0,1.5,2.0,2.5,3.0,3.5,4.0,4.5,&5) wt.% respectively . The use direct
mixing processes to prepared (Epoxy / MWCNTs) nanocomposites . Ultrasonic mixing process was used to
disperse the nanotubes into the epoxy resin system. The results show improves the mechanical properties with
increase percentage weight less than 2% . and then decreased with further increasing the MWCNTs content.The
result show the long carbon nano tube have mechanical properties better than the short carbon nanotube.
Keywords: Multi walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), Epoxy, Nanocomposites |
