Abstract EN

A new approach of oxidation of carbon nanotubes has been used to oxidize the CNTs.

A comparative aspect of the mechanical oxidation and acid oxidation process has been established.

FTIR analysis and titration method have shown the higher feasibility of the mechanical oxidation method to oxidize the CNTs.

Comparatively less damage to the CNTs has been observed in case of mechanically oxidized as compared to acid oxidized CNTs.

The mechanical properties of the nanocomposites reinforced with the acid oxidized CNT (ACNT) and mechanically oxidized CNTs (McCNT) were analyzed and relatively higher properties in the nanocomposites reinforced with McCNT were noticed.

The less degree of entanglement in the McCNTs was noticed as compared to ACNTs.

The dynamic mechanical analysis of the nanocomposites revealed much improved load transfer capability in the McCNT reinforced composites.

Further, the rheological properties of the nanocomposites revealed the higher performance of McCNT reinforced composites.
