Coefficient of thermal expansion of single-wall carbon nanotube reinforced nanocomposites
A study on the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) of single-wall carbon nanotube (SWCNT)-reinforced nanocomposites is presented in this paper. An interfacial adhesion factor (IAF) is introduced for the purpose of modelling the adhesion between SWCNTs and the matrix. The effective CTE and modulus...

| description | A study on the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) of single-wall carbon nanotube (SWCNT)-reinforced nanocomposites is presented in this paper. An interfacial adhesion factor (IAF) is introduced for the purpose of modelling the adhesion between SWCNTs and the matrix. The effective CTE and modulus of SWCNTs are derived using the IAF, and the effective CTE of the nanocomposite is derived by the Mori–Tanaka method. The developed model is validated against experimental data and good agreement is found. |
