Descripción
The influence of singlewalled
carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) and inorganic fullerenelike
tungsten disulfide
nanoparticles (IFWS2)
on the morphology and thermal, mechanical and electrical performance of multifunctional
fibrereinforced
polymer composites has been investigated. Significant improvements were observed in stiffness,
strength and toughness in poly (ether ether ketone) (PEEK) / (SWCNT) / glass fibre (GF) laminates when a
compatibilizer was used for wrapping the CNTs. Hybrid poly(phenylene sulphide) (PPS)/IFWS2/
carbon fibre (CF)
reinforced polymer composites showed improved mechanical and tribological properties attributed to a synergetic
effect between the IF nanoparticles and CF.
