✦ Synopsis

an addition reaction. The products were characterized by FTIR, TGA and TEM. Results indicated that the copolymer was attached to the surface of the MWCNTs by covalent bonds with a content of 42.9%, i.e. every 227 carbon atoms were grafted with a block copolymer chain. The resulting products had a good dispersibility in ethanol.
