Abstract

The possibility for simulation of carbon nanotubes structure in polymer matrix as complex reinforcing element, consisting of nanofiller and covered it interfacial layer is shown. It is concluded that size (radius) of annular formations of such complex element is determined by normalized content of interfacial regions or ability of nanofiller to generate interfacial regions. The change of phase state of polymer matrix from glassy to rubber-like one leads to change of its molecular characteristics, namely, the length of statistical segment of polymer chain. The qualitative jump in reinforcement degree of nanocomposites is realized at transition from closed annular formations of carbon nanotubes to open (circular arc) one.
