Threading Through Macrocycles Enhances the Performance of Carbon Nanotubes as Polymer Fillers [PDF]

, 2016
In this work we study the reinforcement of polymers by mechanically interlocked derivatives of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs). We compare the mechanical properties of fibers made of polymers and of composites with pristine single-walled carbon ...
