The effect of functionalized carbon nanotubes on thermal-mechanical performance of Epoxy nanocomposite coatings
Journal Title: Invention Journal of Research Technology in Engineering & Management - Year 2018, Vol 2, Issue 9
Abstract
The new approaches for preparing nanocomposite coating by modificated carbon nanonotubes (CNTs) and epoxy resin was done in the study. thermal-mechanical performance of nanocomposite coating was investigated and the results were reported in this paper. The physic-chemical techniques such as Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and Thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) were used to characterize the thermal performance of Epoxy nanocomposite coating. The test techniques for mechanical properties of paint coating as adhesion, hardness, impact resistance and bending strength were employed in the work. The results indicated that CNTs were dispersed in epoxy coating with only ratio of 0.1 wt% enhanced the Glass Transition Temperature (Tg), decomposition temperature of epoxy coating and improved mechanical properties significantly. Also functionalized CNTs can be reinforced thermal-mechanical of the epoxy coating better than neat CNTs.
