Abstract:
The remarkable mechanical and electronic properties of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) make them ideal materials candidates for several energy and structural applications. Understanding the interfacial stress transferred from CNTs to polymer matrix in the composite is crucial for exploring CNTs future applications. In this report, a reliable method was developed to quantitatively measure the interface energy between nitrogen doped CNTs and poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) matrix. By pushing the PMMA pillar into CNTs arrays protruded on the substrate then pulling it out, the maximum separation force and adhesion energy were detected. With finite element simulation and analysis formula, the interface energy between CNTs and PMMA was calculated. The results showed that the interface energy between nitrogen doped multi-wall CNTs and PMMA was obtained at 54 Mpa and 99 Mpa, which was higher than pulling pristine multi-wall CNTs or single-wall CNTs out from polymer matrix.
