Abstract
The aim of this research was to improve the electrical and mechanical properties of carbon-fibre-reinforced polymers (CFRP) based on thermoplastic acrylic resin ELIUM®, by introducing single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) into their structure. The laminates were fabricated using the infusion technique of infiltrating the carbon fabric with the mixture of acrylic resin and SWCNTs. The addition of SWCNTs improved the electrical conductivity through the thickness of the laminate by several times compared to the laminate without modification. No defects or voids were observed in the structure of the fabricated nanocomposites. The introduction of SWCNTs into the CFRP structure increased the Young’s modulus, interlaminar shear strength and impact resistance. DMA analysis showed almost no change in the glass transition temperature of the fabricated SWCNT/CFRP nanocomposites compared to the reference laminate.
