The surfactant, sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate (NaDDBS) and coupling agents, γ-aminopropyltriethoxy sliane (KH550) and isopropyl dioleic(dioctylphosphate) titanate (NDZ101) were used to treat multiwalled carbon nanotubes in this work. The effects of surface modification of multiwalled carbon nanotubes on crystallization behavior, mechanical properties, and electrical properties of low density polyethylene/polyolefin elastomer/multiwalled carbon nanotubes composites were studied. The results showed that NaDDBS, KH550, and NDZ101 had a favorable effect of improving the dispersion of multiwalled carbon nanotubes, but it cannot improve the interfacial interactionbetween multiwalled carbon nanotubes and the matrix. The improvement in dispersion favored the crystallization behavior and mechanical properties. Modified multiwalled carbon nanotubes had a better acceleration nucleation effect than raw multiwalled carbon nanotubes on low density polyethylene/polyolefin elastomer blends at low content (≤1 wt%). The tensile strength of low density polyethylene/polyolefin elastomer/multiwalled carbon nanotubes composites with modified multiwalled carbon nanotubes increased with lower multiwalled carbon nanotubes content (≤1 wt%), and KH550 and NDZ101 led low density polyethylene/polyolefin elastomer/multiwalled carbon nanotubes composites to possess a higher tensile strength than that of NaDDBS with 1 wt% content. NaDDBS, KH550, and NDZ101 had a minor influence on the dielectric properties of the composites and even caused a decrease in the dielectric loss of composites with 10 wt% multiwalled carbon nanotubes content.

Nanocomposites based on epoxy which were reinforced by different nanoparticles were fabricated. Five types of nanoparticles (corresponding to multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs), nano-Al2O3, nano-TiO2 and nano-SiO2) were chosen and the weight content of the nanoparticles was 2wt.%. Impact, flexural and thermal-mechanical properties of the nanocomposites were investigated. Compared with neat epoxy, impact strength of systems which were reinforced by MWNTs and nano-TiO2 was increased by 60%. Concerned with the flexural properties, there was also an increase of about 10%~50% with the addition of the some nanoparticles such as MWNTs, nano-TiO2 and nano-SiO2. The heat resistance of the EP was not decreased by adding nanoparticles and the thermal properties of the systems were even improved with the addition of MWNTs.

Recently, Graphene oxide (GO), carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and fullerenes (C60) have attracted enormous interests because of their extraordinary properties, and they can improve various kinds of properties of polymeric materials. The latest achievements on investigating applications and properties including mechanical properties, thermal properties, crystallization behavior and bioactivity of poly (ε-caprolactone). (PCL)/GO, PCL/CNTs and PCL/ C60 nanocomposites obtained in the last five years were summarized in this paper. The relationships between the properties of nanocomposites and the loading, dispersion chemical modification of GO, CNTs and C60 were also discussed.

Unsaturated poly (butylene adipate-co-butylene itaconate) (PBABI) copolyesters were synthesized through melt polymerization composed of 1,4-butanediol (BDO), adipic acid (AA), itaconic acid (IA) and 1,2,4,5-benzenetetracarboxylic acid (BTCA) as a cross-linking modifier. The melting point, crystallization and glass transition temperature of the PBABI copolyesters were detected around 29.8–49 °C, 7.2–29 °C and −51.1 and −58.1 °C, respectively. Young’s modulus can be modified via partial cross-linking by BTCA in the presence of IA, ranging between 32.19–168.45 MPa. Non-isothermal crystallization kinetics were carried out to explore the crystallization behavior, revealing the highest crystallization rate was placed in the BA/BI = 90/10 at a given molecular weight. Furthermore, the thermal, mechanical properties, and crystallization rate of PBABI copolyesters can be tuned through the adjustment of BTCA and IA concentrations.
