Notes:
The carbon nanotube (CNT) surface is successfully modified using the UV/Ozonetreatment and a triethylenetetramine (TETA) solution for use as the reinforcement forpolymer matrix nanocomposites. These treatments along with ultrasonication are aimed todisperse the CNTs uniformly in the resin matrix, as well as to provide the CNT surface withchemical functionalities for adhesion with resin. Fourier transform infra-red (FTIR)spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) are performed to evaluate thechanges in chemical structure and surface functional groups arising from the chemicaltreatment. The practical implications of the surface functional groups for improving theinterfacial adhesion are discussed
