Investigation of the Carbon Nanotubes Functionalization Effect on the Composite Material Conductive Properties

Abstract

The changes in the morphology of conical carbon nanotubes and composition of functional groups on their surface during liquid-phase functionalization in various solutions were investigated. The dependence of the type of functional groups on the composition of oxidizing agents was studied. The influence of the type of functional groups on the carbon nanotubes surface on the conductive properties of the polymer composite material based on them was established.
