Abstract
The entry presents studies of the effect of dispersion temperature on the deposition rate of CNTs in the presence of a plasticizer based on sulfonated naphthalene formaldehyde resins, on the dispersed composition of CNTs in aqueous and aqueous-polymer dispersion media and on the strength characteristics of samples with stabilized CNTs. It was established that the ultrasonic dispersion of aqueous suspensions of CNTs in the presence of a plasticizer based on sulfonated naphthalene formaldehyde resins at an ultrasonic vibration frequency of 44 kHz; dispersion temperature - 25 ± 2 °C; dispersion time - 10 - 30 minutes is capable of ensuring the stability of CNTs suspensions for 7 days or more. The mechanism of stabilization of aqueous suspension of CNTs by a plasticizer based on sulfonated naphthalene formaldehyde resins is presented. It has been established that the stabilization of CNTs is achieved by fixing the functional groups of the plasticizer on the surface of the nanoparticle, the nonpolar component of which ensures the formation of a high-viscosity interlayer between the CNTs particles and the dispersion medium, and the polar component is the formation of a double electric layer (DEL) that promotes the micellization of CNTs. As a result, the CNTs stabilized with sulfonaphthalene formaldehyde are evenly distributed in the volume of the cement system, causing the production of cement stone with enhanced performance properties.
