Abstract
In this work, mechanisms of aggregation of carbon nanotubes in polymer nanocomposites are studied. This class of nanofillers exhibits two types of aggregations: formation of bunches or ringlike nanotube structures. The ultrasound is found to affect only the second type of aggregation, which is manifested in a strong (almost by an order of magnitude) increase in the radius of the carbon ringlike nanotube structures. This effect occurs only below the nanofiller percolation threshold.
