Growth of carbon nanotubes on carbon fibres and the tensile properties of resulting carbon fibre reinforced polypropylene composites
Carbon nanotubes were grown directly on carbon fibres using the chemical vapor deposition technique. The effects of reaction temperature (800-900°C) and hydrogen gas flowrate (100-300 ml/min) on the morphology of the carbon nanotube coating were investigated. Carbon nanotubes produced were character...
