The accessible compendium of polymers in carbon nanotubes
(CNTs)
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs)--extremely thin tubes only a few
nanometers in diameter but able to attain lengths thousands of
times greater--are prime candidates for use in the development of
polymer composite materials. Bringing together thousands of
disparate research works, Carbon Nanotube-Polymer Composites:
Manufacture, Properties, and Applications covers CNT-polymers from
synthesis to potential applications, presenting the basic science
and engineering of this dynamic and complex area in an accessible,
readable way.
Designed to be of use to polymer scientists, engineers,
chemists, physicists, and materials scientists, the book covers
carbon nanotube fundamentals to help polymer experts understand
CNTs, and polymer physics to help those in the CNT field, making it
an invaluable resource for anyone working with CNT-polymer
composites. Detailed chapters describe the mechanical, rheological,
electrical, and thermal properties of carbon nanotube-polymer
composites.
Including a glossary that defines key terms, Carbon
Nanotube-Polymer Composites is essential reading for anyone looking
to gain a fundamental understanding of CNTs and polymers, as well
as potential and current applications, including electronics
(shielding and transparent electrodes), flame retardants, and
electromechanics (sensors and actuators), and their challenges.
