Vertically aligned carbon nanotube‐based composite: Elaboration and monitoring of the nanotubes alignment

Abstract: International audienceWe present the different elaboration steps of a composite formed of carbon nanotubes (CNT) carpet embedded in an epoxy polymer. Detailed characterization at each step of the elaboration process is performed. The good alignment of CNT in as-grown carpets is kept all along the elaboration process of the composite, as it is measured at both macro and microscopic scales by X-ray scattering. We also ensured by X-ray fluorescence measurements that the iron-based catalyst particles used for the … Show more

“…Due to their unique anisotropic properties, vertically aligned carpets of multi-wall carbon nanotubes (VA-MWCNTs) are being investigated for a variety of applications such as composites [1][2][3][4] , membranes and filters [5][6][7][8] , thermal interface materials [9][10][11] , electronic devices 12 and supercapacitors [13][14][15][16] . In most of these applications, high structural uniformity, low crystallographic imperfections, high purity and alignment of MWCNTs are sought after in order to achieve improved reinforcement, high electrical and thermal conductivity, etc.…”
