how will you reinforce CNT? in powder form or in fibre form? another thing which resin as binder are you going to use?
Ravi Kumar
As I know it depend first on the matrix in which you want to reinforce CNT.
Second the size of CNT can affect majorly the dispersion in matrix.
If you are mixing it in any polymer then you can use both king of filler sizes. But if you want to mix it in metal matrix composite, then there is a chance of agglomeration after a wt.% of increment in CNT in case of fibre form, and less possibility of agglomeration in powder form.
Binder:
Thermoplastic based PMC : phenyltrimethoxysilane (PTMS)
MMC: Nickel coating
The type of epoxy depends on the type of material reinforcement, normally CNT will be used as reinforcement in powder form and epoxy may suggested as Lapox-12
