Kusukela atholakala ngo-1991, ama-carbon nanotube aye athandwa abacwaningi emkhakheni wamakhemikhali, i-physics, nesayensi yezinto zokwakha.Kodwa-ke, ngenxa yokuthi ama-carbon nanotubes kulula kakhulu ukuwahlanganisa, awahlakazeki kalula emgodleni ekusebenzeni okungokoqobo.Ukuguqulwa kwamakhemikhali angaphezulu kwama-carbon nanotubes ukuze kuthuthukiswe izindawo zawo ezingaphezulu kuyindlela ephumelelayo yokuvula leli bhodlela.Indlela yokuguqula amakhemikhali iwukwenza ukusabela kwamakhemikhali phakathi kwe-carbon nanotubes nesishintshi ukuze kushintshwe ukwakheka kwendawo kanye nesimo sama-carbon nanotubes, ukuze kufezwe injongo yokuguqulwa.Enye yezinto ezivame ukusetshenziswa kakhulu ama-asidi aqinile noma ama-asidi axubile ukuze enze amaphutha ebusweni be-carbon nanotubes akhe amaqembu e-carboxyl.

Ama-COOH Multi Walled Carbon Nanotubes angasetshenziswa ezintweni eziyinhlanganisela ukuthuthukisa ukusebenza kwawo.Okulandelayo amanye amaphepha kanye nemiphumela yocwaningo ukuze kubhekwe kuyo:

Njenge-ejenti ye-nucleating ehlukahlukene, i-CNT-COOH inciphisa usayizi ojwayelekile wamaseli e-phenolic foam futhi ikhulise ukuminyana kwamaseli;njengoba okuqukethwe kwe-CNTCOOH ku-phenolic foam kwanda, i-compression modulus kanye nokucindezelwa kwe-CNT-COOH / phenolic foam composite Amandla anda.

Ngemuva kokuguqulwa kwe-carboxylation ye-MWCNTs, ukuhlakazeka kokubalulekile kwe-matrix ye-ABS kuyathuthukiswa, futhi nokuzinza kuyathuthukiswa.Ngasikhathi sinye, izinto eziwumshini ze-ABS / MWCNTs-COOH ezihlanganisiwe nazo ziyathuthukiswa, futhi amandla okubamba ayathuthukiswa.Kule nqubo, kuzokwakhiwa ungqimba lwekhabhoni yenethiwekhi ebusweni bento ukuze kuthuthukiswe ukusebenza kwe-flame retardant yezinto eziyinhlanganisela.
