Abstract

This paper examines the mechanical properties of the composite of thermoplastic polymer matrix with carbon nanotubes. As the basic polymer matrix was used acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) to which were added the nanoparticles in a given percentage by weight in the form of nanotubes. Composite was injected into the Arburg injection molding machine. For evaluation were measured harness, impact and tensile test. These tests are compared with polymeric materials without added nanofiller. In conclusion is evaluated and compared influence on the mechanical properties of polymer matrix with carbon nanotubes and without fillers.

Keywords: carbon nanotubes, nanocomposites, mechanical properties
