Grafting ramie fiber with carbon nanotube and its effect on the mechanical and interfacial properties of ramie/epoxy composites

Multiwalled carbon nanotubes were grafted to ramie fiber through a silane coupling agent, and its effect on the mechanical and interfacial properties of ramie/epoxy composite was studied. The properties of the grafted fiber were compared with untreated, alkali-treated, and silane-treated fibers. The...
