Carbon nanotubes were functionalized by polystyrene copolymers, poly(styrene-co-hydroxymethylstyrene) and poly(styrene-co-aminomethylstyrene), under esterification and amidation reaction conditions, respectively. The polymer-attached carbon nanotubes are soluble in common organic solvents, forming colored homogeneous solutions. Results from the characterization of the functionalized carbon nanotubes are presented and discussed.

Polymerization Method

In this work, plasma combined with maleic anhydride induced-graft polymerization method was employed to fabricate highly-functionalized carbon nanotubes, whose surface was coated by uniform polymaleic anhydride thin film. Their compositions and structures were characterized by FTIR, SEM and XPS techniques. In order to evaluate the modification effect, they were further used as modifier to improve the tensile and surface properties of fluorinated polyurethane elastomers.
