Analysis of Mechanical and Thermogravimetric Properties of Composite Materials Based on PVA/MWCNT and Styrene-Acrylic Copolymer/MWCNT

Аннотация

Mechanical and thermogravimetric properties of polymer composite materials with various concentrations of multiwalled carbon nanotubes effectively shielding radiation in the radio frequency (20 Hz – 1 MHz) and microwave (26–36 GHz) frequency ranges are studied. As a matrix, widely available polymeric materials, such as polyvinyl acetate and styrene-acrylate, were used in the form of dispersions. From the analysis of the obtained experimental data, it was shown that the introduction of carbon nanotubes into the polymer matrix makes it possible to increase mechanical properties and thermal stability of composite materials.
