Carbon nanotube-polymer nanocomposites: The role of interfaces

Research aimed at producing new nanocomposites with improved properties has dramatically increased in the last decade, especially on materials tailored at a nanometric level, such as fullerenes and carbon nanotubes. The use of nanoforms as reinforcement of organic polymers has opened the possibility of developing novel ultra-strong and conductive nanocomposites. Nevertheless, the challenge of manufacturing multifunctional composite materials based on nanostructures is still open, in particular in the details of the corresponding interfacial properties, which are particularly relevant in these systems. This paper reviews the main technical activities in this field, focusing on the most important parameters that influence the behavior of their interface, discussing recent advances, as well as current and future trends in research.
