Abstract:

The multi-scale hybridization of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) with micro-particles in polymers offers new opportunity to develop high performance multifunctional composites. In this review, hybrid fillers comprised of CNTs directly grown on alumina micro-spheres by chemical vapor deposition were incorporated into epoxy matrix that was then reinforced with woven glass fibers. After that the composites are subjected to cryogenic treatment to increase its mechanical properties. This review reveals the potential of forming fiber-reinforced composite by using multi-scale carbon hybrids with the help of cryogenic treatment.

Keywords:

glass fabric, CNTs, cryogenic.
