Improving Compressive Strength of Aramid Fiber by Introducing Carbon Nanotube Derivates Grafted with Oligomers of Different Conformations and Controlling Its Alignment
Abstract:Low compressive strength of aramid fiber is one of the most prominent obstacles for its application as a strengthening material. Herein, based on nucleophilic reaction of CF bonds, fluorinated carbon nanotube (FCNT) derivates grafted with oligomers of different conformations are prepared to modify (Poly‐p‐phenylene‐benzimidazole‐terephthalamide) (PBIA) fiber. CF bonds of FCNT can react with benzimidazole units and terminal amino groups of PBIA oligomers. Therefore, FCNT derivates grafted with oligomers of di… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
