Functionalization with different amino groups of multi-walled carbon nanotubes was achieved and nanotube-reinforced epoxy nanocomposites were prepared by mixing amino-functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes with epoxy resin. Differential scanning calorimetry, thermogravimetric analysis and bending tests were used to investigate the thermal and mechanical properties of the nanocomposites. The results showed that different kinds of amino-functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes would have different effects on the thermal and mechanical properties of the nanocomposites. The reinforcement mechanism of amino-functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes in epoxy resin was discussed. (C) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
