Polymer composites with carbon nanotubes (CNT) as filler material is an exciting research area, having a huge potential of offering superior mechanical properties. One of the main challenges of using CNT as a filler material is the control of the dispersion of CNTs within the matrix material, as this dispersion determines the strength of the composite. Some of the methods being researched for enhancing dispersion are chemical, mechanical and surfactants. Many studies have suggested ultrasonication as the preferred way for better dispersion, but challenges exist with finding the proper solvent which can be used for ultrasonication and at the same time doesn't react with the base polymer. Furthermore, the solvent selection is limited by viscosity, evaporation rate, and stability after ultrasonication. Functionalization of CNT may also affect the mechanical properties of the composite as it is supposed to help in distribution of CNTs in polymer matrix. For this study multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) with different functionalizations (COOH & OH) and polydimethylsiloxane is selected as CNT polymer composite.

520 $a The objective of this study is to determine an effective solvent for ultrasonication and investigate the role of dispersion on the mechanical properties of the CNT polymer composite. Additionally the secondary objective of this study is to examine how the functionalization helps in enhancing the mechanical properties of CNT polymer composite.
