ABSTRACT

The surface treatment effects of reinforcement filler were investigated based on the dynamic mechanical properties of mutiwalledcarbon nanotubes (MWCNTs)/epoxy composites. The as-received MWCNTs(R-MWCNTs) were chemically modifiedby direct oxyfluorination method to improve the dispersibility and adhesiveness with epoxy resins in composite system. Inorder to investigate the induced functional groups on MWCNTs during oxyfluorination, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopywas used. The thermo-mechanical property of MWCNTs/epoxy composite was also measured based on effects ofoxyfluorination treatment of MWCNTs. The storage modulus of MWCNTs/epoxy composite was enhanced about 1.27 timesthrough oxyfluorination of MWCNTs fillers at 25oC. The storage modulus of oxyfluorinated MWCNTs (OF73-MWCNTs)reinforced epoxy composite was much higher than that of R-MWCNTs/epoxy composite. It revealed that oxygen content ledto the efficient carbon-fluorine covalent bonding during oxyfluorination. These functional groups on surface modifiedMWCNTs induced by oxyfluorination strikingly made an important role for the reinforced epoxy composite.
