Exploration of Epoxy Resins, Hardening Systems, and Epoxy/Carbon Nanotube Composite Designed for High Performance Materials: A Review

Epoxy resins, is an important class of reactive polymers, have been reported to be toughened by nanoparticles. Carbon nanotube is a tubular cylinder ofcarbonatoms having extraordinary mechanical, electrical, and thermal properties. In this article, present state of epoxy/carbon nanotube composite is given. Types of epoxy and hardening agents commonly used in composite processing have been thrashed out. Frequently used fabrication techniques are...
