Morphology of polyamide 6 confined into carbon nanotubes

Morphology of polyamide 6 confined into carbon nanotubes

The preparation of polymer nanocomposites filled with carbon nanotubes requires the nanotubes to be uniformly dispersed and compatible with the polymer matrix. In this work we report a preparation method of polyamide 6 (PA 6) based nanocomposite containing multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) witho...
