Abstract

Epoxy nanocomposites with multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) were prepared. The interaction between MWNTs and epoxy matrix and microstructure were systematically investigated by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and the positron annihilation technology (PAT) respectively. The glass transition temperatures were determined by the variation of the free volume size.
