This document summarizes research on using carbon nanotubes (CNTs) to improve the impact resistance of epoxy composites. The researchers studied how individual CNTs and CNT clusters contribute to mechanical properties. Well-dispersed individual CNTs improved properties more than clustered CNTs. Adding polyamide particles to carry CNTs improved dispersion and properties more than CNTs alone. Interlayering the epoxy composite with a CNT/polyamide film further improved the toughness of carbon fiber composites.
