Excellent mechanical, thermal, and electrical properties of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and
nanofibers (CNFs) have motivated the development of advanced nanocomposites with …

Vapor grown carbon nanofiber (VGCNF)/polymer conductive composites are elegant
materials that exhibit superior electrical, electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding …

In this paper, the mechanical properties of vapor grown carbon nanofiber (VGCNF)/polymer
composites are reviewed. The paper starts with the structural and intrinsic mechanical …

This review summarizes recent work on manufacturing of different types of composites.
There is a great need to engineer multi-phase (ie, composite) materials that combine the …

An effective carbon fiber/graphene oxide/carbon nanotubes (CF-GO-CNTs) multiscale
reinforcement was prepared by co-grafting carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and graphene oxide …

Epoxy/vapor grown carbon nanofiber composites (VGCF) with different proportions of VGCF
were fabricated by the in situ process. The VGCFs were well dispersed in both of the low …

Carbon nitride materials have been of great interests to the scientific community due to their
unique properties such as extreme hardness, low density, chemical inertness …

In this work, halloysite nanotubes (HNTs), a new type of inexpensive filler, were used for the
modification of polypropylene (PP). HNTs were first surface treated by methyl, tallow, bis-2 …

Graphene oxide (GO) and polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) grafted carbon fiber
(CF) was demonstrated to reinforce the mechanical properties of fiber composites. Such a …
