Nanocomposites based on semi-crystalline poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) and well-dispersed chemically functionalized singlewalled carbon nanotubes are combined through simple mixing. The interaction between the nanotubes and the polymer matrix is studied using optical and thermal methods. Significant enh
Multifunctional nanocomposites are increasingly needed for applications requiring prescribed sets of physical and chemical properties. Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is a popular solid lubricant due to its low friction coefficient, high chemical inertness, high thermal range and biocompatibility, bu
## Abstract Biodegradable poly(butylene succinate)/carbon nanotubes nanocomposites were prepared by melt mixing process, and the influence of carbon nanotubes on the properties of the nanocomposites was investigated. Differential scanning calorimetry showed that crystallization temperature (__T__~c
