A rapid, solventless method is described for the decoration of carbon nanotubes with metal nanoparticles. The straightforward two-step process utilizes neither reducing agents nor electric current and involves dry mixing a precursor salt (e.g., acetate) (single- or multi-walled) followed by heating in an inert atmosphere. procedure scalable to multigram quantities generally applicable various other substrates nanofiber, expanded graphite, black) many salts Ag, Au, Co, Ni, Pd acetates). As...

Novel aromatic/aliphatic polyimides were prepared from 2,7-diamino-9,9'-dioctylfluorene (AFDA) and aromatic dianhydrides. Upon investigating the effectiveness of these for debundling single wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) in solution, three discovered to aid dispersion SWNTs N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMAc). Two polyimides, one 3,3',4,4'-oxydiphthalic anhydride (ODPA) symmetric 3,3',4,4'-biphenyltetracarboxylic dianhydride (s-BPDA), used prepare nanocomposites. Homogeneous polyimide/SWNT...

Ion-exchange polymer membrane metallic composites (IPMC) are one of the electroactive polymers (EAP) that were shown to have potential application as actuators. The recent introduction perfluorocarboxylate-gold composite with tetra-n-butylammonium and lithium cations instead sodium made most significant improvement material's electroactivity. Under less than 3 volts, such IPMC material induce bending beyond a compete loop. characteristics offered an attractive actuation capability for dust...

Thermoset/carbon nanotube (CNT) sheet nanocomposites were successfully fabricated by resistive heating assisted infiltration and cure (RHAIC) of the polymer matrix resin. Resistive takes advantage electrical thermal conductivity CNTs to rapidly uniformly introduce heat into CNT sheet. Heating reduces viscosity resin due localized temperature rise in close proximity resin, which enhances flow, penetration, wetting reinforcement. Once infusion process is complete, applied power increased raise...

Two phenylethynyl terminated oligomers designated PETI-298 and PETI-330 were developed at the NASA Langley Research Center have emerged as leading candidates for composite applications requiring high temperature performance (i.e. ≥ 288 °C 1000 hours) combined with ability to be readily processed into composites without use of an autoclave or complex lengthy cure postcure cycles. These performance/high are potentially useful on advanced aerospace vehicles in structural aircraft engine...

In an effort to improve polymer thermal conductivity (TC), Ultem TM 1000 was compounded with nano-fillers of carbon allotropes. As-received and modified multiwalled nanotubes (MWCNTs), vapor-grown nanofibers (CNF) expanded graphite (EG) were investigated. Functionalization MWCNTs performed the TC compatibility between resin MWCNTs. It postulated that this may provide improved interface MWCNT which would result in enhanced TC. The mixed inthemeltandinsolution at concentrations ranging from 5...
