Strength and modulus of carbon nanotubes under a tensile load

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were fabricated using low-pressure chemical vapor deposition and then embedded in epoxy polymer at several weight ratios, 0, 0.75, 1.5, and 3 wt%, for tensile testing and Young’s modulus determination using an Instron machine. The tensile strength and Young’s modulus of the e...
