Abstract
Non-ionic solvent-free carbon nanotube nanofluids (NSCNN) were prepared using carboxylic MWNTs-COOH and poly(ethylene oxide)-block-poly(propylene oxide)-block-poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO-b-PPO-b-PEO) via hydrogen bonding between the surface -OH or C=O groups and the hydroxy groups. It can be seen that NSCNN were used as reinforcing materials for PP to prepare nanocomposites through solution and mechanical method. Rotary rheometer was used to test the flow feature of the NSCNN. Copolymer is attached on the surface of MWNTs. The MWNTs content is 27.37%. Storage modulus G' is smaller than the loss modulus G″, indicating the NSCNN is liquid. MWNTs can enhance the crystalline degree of PP.
