Carbon nanotube reinforced eonduetive polymer composites have also yielded promising results. It has been demonstrated that both single and multi walled carbon nanotubes ean be used to increase the conductivity and mechanical strength of conductive polymers [111, 112]. Studies show that the modulus of PANI can be inereased up to four times with the addition of as little as 2% carbon nanotubes [112]. Figure 13.14 shows PANI-carbon nanotube fibers fabricated by Mottaghitalab et al. Spinks et al. used carbon nanotubes combined with PANI in composite fibers. Their...

Numerous micromechanical models have been successfully used to predict the macroscopic behavior of fiber-reinforced composites. However, the direct use of these models for nanotube-reinforced composites is doubtfiil due to the significant scale difference between nanotube and typical carbon fiber. Recently, two methods have been proposed for modeling the mechanical behavior of single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCN) composites ...

Recently, nanostructured carbon-based fillers such as Ceo [313,314], single-wall carbon nanotubes, carbon nanohorns (CNHs), carbon nanoballoons (CNBs), ketjenblack (KB), conductive grade and graphitized carbon black (CB) [184], graphene [348], and nanodiamonds [349] have been used to prepare PLA-based composites. These fillers enhance the crystalUza-tion ofPLLA [184,313,314].Nanocomposites incorporating fibrous MWCNTsandSWCNTs are discussed in the section on fibre-reinforced plastics (section 8.12.3).

Therefore the three t)rpes of materials modified with carbon particles were prepared (i) carbon fibre-reinforced carbon composites (CERC), materials promising for hard tissue surgery, coated with a fullerene Ceo layer, (ii) terpolymer of polytetrafluoroethylene, polyvinyldifluoride and pol)rpropylene mixed with 4 wt. % of single or multi-walled carbon nanotubes and (iii) nanostructured or hierarchically micro- and nanostructured diamond layers deposited on silicon substrates [23]. 

Carbon Nanotube and Carbon Nanofiber Nanocomposites. The discovery of single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWNT) has renewed focus on composites with SWNT, multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWNT) and carbon nanofiber (CNF) reinforcements, together referred to as ID Nanocarbon composites (39). These constituents offer promise for new lightweight materials with incredible mechanical, electrical, and thermal properties. ID Nanocarbon materials are envisioned as multifunctional materials, eg single materials used for structures as well as electrical and/or thermal conductors. One example is electronics in a space satellite that need to be lightweight and mechanically supported, have the excess heat dissipated, and be protected from electromagnetic interference (EMI). Other examples are structures that are also batteries and structures that store hydrogen for fuel cells.
