Abstract
.Functionalization of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) surface with sulfonated poly(ether ether ketone) SPEEK chains using hexane diamine (HAD) as the interlinking molecule was investigated. MWNTs were first oxidized by nitric acid to generate carboxyl groups on their surface. Grafting of SPEEK chains on the MWNTs surface was achieved using hexane diamine as a cross-linking molecule. The attachment took place after the reaction of amine groups with carboxyl groups of oxidized MWNTs and sulfonate groups of SPEEK as confirmed by infrared (FTIR) analysis. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) showed that MWNTs were packed into a dense and compact structure. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) showed that the nanotubes were wrapped by polymer chains and arranged in a bundle like structure. These observations reveal that some of MWNTs were interconnected by SPEEK chains.
