AbstractSingle-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) and multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) were functionalized with 3,4-diaminobenzoic acid via “direct” Friedel-Crafts acylation reaction in PPA/P2O5 to afford ortho-diamino-functionalized SWCNT (DIF-SWCNT) and MWCNT (DIF-MWCNT). The resultant DIF-SWCNT and DIF-MWCNT showed improved solubility and dispersibility. To improve interfacial adhesion between CNT and polymer matrix, the grafting of ABPBI onto the surface of DIF-SWCNT (10 wt%) or DIF-MWCNT (10 wt%) was conducted by simple in-situ polymerization of AB monomer, 3,4-diaminobenzoic acid dihydrochloride, in PPA. The resultant ABPBI-g-MWCNT and ABPBI-g-SWCNT showed improved the mechanical and electrical properties.

To improve the interfacial adhesion of glass fiber (GF)/epoxy composites, the GF surface was treated by dispersing aliphatic diamine-functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs). Carboxyl MWCNTs were first modified by aliphatic diamine with different alkyl chain lengths and then deposited on the surface of GF. The effect of aliphatic diamine chain lengths on the MWCNTs’ dispersion and interfacial properties of resultant composites was investigated in detail. The results showed that uniform dispersion of MWCNTs and strong fiber/matrix interfacial adhesion could be achieved, based on the grafting of 1,8-octanediamine onto MWCNTs. Compared with the control sample, the interlaminar shear, flexural, and tensile strengths of the treated composites increased by 41%, 29%, and 30%, respectively; the interlaminar fracture toughness and storage modulus in the glass region were significantly enhanced; and the glass transition temperature increased by more than 8°C. This work demonstrates that the carbon nanotubes functionalized by appropriate chain lengths of amine modifier can improve the fiber/matrix interfacial interactions and thus enhance the strength, toughness, and stiffness of fiber-reinforced composites.

The theoretical model, using the notions of fractal analysis is proposed for description of strength of nanocomposites polymer/2D-nanofiller on the example of nanocomposites polyvinylalcohol/boron nitride. For correct description of strength of these two-phase nanomaterial the knowledge of initial characteristics of matrix polymer (stress of fracture), geometrical parameters of nanofiller and level of interfacial adhesion polymer matrix-nanofiller is necessary. The indicated level, characterizing by shear interfacial strength, was determined theoretically within the framework of fractal conception of adhesion. Its absolute values found high enough – they are comparable with this characteristic in systems polymer-carbon nanotubes and are higher essentially than in systems polymer-microfiber (glassy and carbon fibers). This factor defines high enough strength of the considered nanocomposites. The important factor for fracture process of nanomaterials is aggregation of initial platelets of nanofiller, which forms “packets” (tactoids) of such platelets. The relatively small aggregation degree of nanofiller gives appreciable reduction of strength of nanocomposites polymer/2D-nanofiller. The indicated reduction is connected with transition of 2D-nanofiller structure from exfoliated to intercalated one, i.e. from separate platelets to their tactoids.

Diffusion Properties

The interfacial adhesion between asphalt binder and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) depends on many nanoscopic properties such as diffusion of SARA molecules on CNTs surface. Functionalization of CNTs with Oxygens (O=CNTs), hydroxyl groups (HO–CNTs), and hydrogens (H–CNTs) has been an effective way to modify the surface properties of CNTs and ultimately the macroscopic properties of the CNT-composites. This paper presents the effect of different dosages of oxygenated and hydrogenated CNTs on the adhesion and diffusion of SARA molecules on CNTs’ surfaces. First, reactive molecular dynamics simulation is used to oxygenate and hydrogenate CNTs up to a certain dosage. Next, it is employed to model the interaction and diffusion of SARA molecules with the functionalized CNTs. We employ the steer molecular dynamic (SMD) and Einstein formula to calculate the adhesion and diffusion properties. The results demonstrate that hydrogenation has little effect on the adhesion energy, while oxygenation can increase adhesion energy up to 100% for 25% dosage. The diffusion coefficient dramatically drops for both oxygenated and hydrogenated CNTs, with lower values for the latter. We observe that for hydrogenated and oxygenated CNTs at different dosages, asphaltene, resin, aromatic, and saturate molecules have the highest to lowest values, respectively.
