Morphology Analysis and Mechanical Properties of MWCNT Reinforced Nylon-6,6 Nanofiber Mats by Electrospun Method

摘要

In this study, the production of weight ratios of 1, 3 and 5% multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) reinforced/unreinforced Nylon 6,6 (N-6.6) nanofiber mats was carried out by electrospun method. Tensile strength (б_T), modulus of elasticity (E), toughness and elongation amounts were investigated by tensile tests under static loading with / without reinforced nanofiber mats. 3 % MWCNT reinforced N-6.6 nanofiber mats, б_T, E and toughness increased by 84.4, 235 and 112 %, respectively, when compared with N-6.6 nanofiber mats. In addition, scanning electron microscope (SEM) images were also investigated to determine the physical properties at the specification of reinforced /unreinforced N-6.6 nanofiber mats.
