In this work, approach to use of noncovalently modified carbon nanotubes is given for preparation of functional hybrid polymeric composite materials (HPCM) based on epoxy resin. Conductive glass-fiber plastics with resistivity in transverse and lengthwise direction 9.0Á3 10 2 and 30-50 Ohm cm, respectively, were obtained. The tetrafluoroethylene telomer and fluorocontaining organosilicon copolymer with amino groups were used as modifiers for carbon nanotubes. Thermal, electrical, and mechanical properties of the obtained materials were studied. The mechanism of the effect of noncovalent modification of carbon nanotubes on functional properties of HPCM was discussed. It was found, that type of modifier significantly affects the level of functional properties. The use of fluorocontaining organosilicon copolymer is more optimal in comparison with tetrafluoroethylene telomer. Thus, HPCM with carbon-fiber filler and this modifier has higher electrical conductivity and lightning strike resistance in comparison with nonmodified HPCM. This approach is promising to impart antistatic properties for glass-fiber plastics and increase lightning resistance of carbonfiber plastics.
