Carbon nanotubes filled polymer composites: A comprehensive study on improving dispersion, network formation and electrical conductivity
(2010)
In this dissertation, we determine how the dispersion, network formation and alignment of carbon nanotubes in polymer nanocomposites affect the electrical properties of two different polymer composite systems: high temperature ...
Dispersion of carbon nanotubes in vinyl ester polymer composites
(2010)
This work focused on a parametric study of dispersions of different types of carbon nanotubes in a polymer resin. Single-walled (SWNTs), double-walled (DWNTs), multi-walled (MWNTs) and XD-grade carbon nanotubes (XD-CNTs) ...
Applications of functional carbon nanomaterials from hydrogen storage to drug delivery
(2010)
This dissertation describes the modification and functionalization of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs). These SWCNTs were then investigated for their use in medical applications and for the storage of hydrogen.
