With the Grafting to method, the hyperbranched polyurethane/multi-walled carbon nanotubes composites (MWNT-HBPU) was prepared. The reaction mechanism was covalently grafting hyperbranched polyurethane to multi-walled carbon nanotubes,through the reaction of the isocyanate groups of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNT-NCO) and the hydroxyl groups of homemade hyperbranched polyurethane (HBPU). The structure and properties of the composites was studied by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), Raman spectroscopy (Raman), Thermal gravimetric analysis (TG) and Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The test results of FT-IR and TG showed that the prepared product was MWNT-HBPU; the DSC results demonstrated that the glass transition temperature of HBPU was significantly increased from 91.9°C to more than 99.7°C by the addition of MWNT-HBPU; the dispersion of the MWNT-HBPU was much better than the pure MWNT in solvents, such as N, N-dimethylformamide , Dimethyl sulfoxide etc.

Polylactide (PLA) nanocomposites with multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) grafted with poly(L-lactide) or poly(D-lactide) were prepared by solution casting, and their thermal and mechanical properties were evaluated. MWNTs containing hydroxyl groups were treated by ring-opening polymerization of either L-lactide or D-lactide. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy confirmed that the MWNT surfaces had been modified by the PLLA or PDLA chains. The thermal properties were measured by differential scanning calorimetry and thermogravimetric analysis. The mechanical properties were examined using a universal testing machine. The morphology of the fractured surfaces of the PLA nanocomposites was observed by scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. PDLA-g-MWNTs were dispersed more uniformly compared to PLLA-g-MWNTs in the PLA matrix. The incorporation of PDLA-g-MWNTs greatly improved the tensile strength of the nanocomposites regardless of the contents. Thermal analysis revealed different characteristics at specific composites depending on the type of modification.

In this paper, Fe3O4magnetite nanoparticles decorated multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs-Fe3O4) nanocomposite was successfully prepared. Firstly, carboxyl-functionalized MWCNTs were obtained after acid oxidization. Then, Fe3O4 nanoparticles were attached onto the surface of MWCNTs through chemical reaction between hydroxyl groups on the surface of Fe3O4 nanoparticles and carboxyl groups on the surface of MWCNTs.
