Abstract

Un-expected large increase in crystallization temperature (c.a. 53 °C) was found for Nylon-6 nanocomposites with both kind of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and plasma-polymerized CNTs (CNTM) compared with Nylon-6 homopolymer. This behavior was associated with a high level of dispersion of CNT in all nanocomposites and the ability of CNT to act like a nucleating agent for semi-crystalline polymers. Besides, the steps involved in polymerization procedure help in dispersion of CNT, which is reported for the first time.
