Abstract
In the present study, multi walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) derived from camphor were dispersed in EPON 862 resin via sonication. Effectiveness of MWNT addition on the mechanical properties of EPON 862 resin was evaluated by performing tension test and dynamic mechanical analysis. While tensile strength remained almost unchanged with the addition of up to 0.15. wt.% MWNT, there was an appreciable change in the elastic modulus and dynamic mechanical properties such as storage modulus, loss modulus and tan δ.
