Preparation and characterization of carbon nanotube filled poly (2-hydroxyeth…

Poly(2-hydroxyethylmethacrylate) (PHEMA)/multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) nanocomposites were prepared by solvent casting using dimethyl formamide (DMF) solvent via sonication process. Effect of addition of MWNTs on the properties of nanocomposites was investigated at different nanofiller contents. Uniform dispersion and distrubution of nanotubes in PHEMA matrix is obtained within the studi…
