Carbon nanotubes grown on carbon fiber yarns by a low temperature CVD method: A significant enhancement of the interfacial adhesion between carbon fiber/epoxy matrix hierarchical composites
In this work, we show that the interfacial adhesion between carbon fibers (CFs) and epoxy matrix in laminated composites can be significantly enhanced by the chemical vapor deposition (CVD) growth of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) onto the fiber surfaces at low temperatures. The key process p...
