Novel materials with wide application engineering

The extraordinary mechanical, thermal and electrical properties of carbon nanotubes (CNT) have prompted intense research into a wide range of applications in structural materials, electronics, and chemical processing.Attempts have been made to develop advanced engineering materials with improved or novel properties through the incorporation of carbon nanotubes in selected matrices (polymers, metals and ceramics). But the use of carbon nanotubes to reinforce ceramic composites has not been very successful. So far, only modest improvements of properties were reported in CNTs reinforced silicon carbide and silicon nitride matrix composites, while a noticeable increase of the fracture toughness and of electrical conductivity has been achieved in CNTs reinforced alumina matrix composites. ... [Pg.259]

The first commercial epoxy resins produced from a common reaction between epichlorohydrin and bisphenol A (DGEBA) were pioneered, almost simultaneously, by the Swiss inventor P. Castan (under the Ciba Company license) and by S. O. Greenlee (woiking with Devoe Reynolds Company) back in the 1940s (Pascault and Williams 2010). Since then, the versatility of epoxies and the innovation in formulation has resulted in plenty of epoxy resin-based materials, with uses across an enormously wide variety of industries (Petrie 2005). Nowadays, engineered nano-structured epoxy-based materials can be manufactured and potentially used as novel functional materials for a number of new applications in... [Pg.258]
