The in-plane shear properties of nanostitched three-dimensional (3D) carbon/epoxy composites were investigated. Adding the stitching fiber or multiwalled carbon nanotubes or nanostitched fiber into carbon fabric preform slightly improved the shear strength and modulus of stitched and stitched nanocomposites. The in-plane shear fracture of the base and nanostructures was extensive delamination and tensile fiber failures in the sheared region. But, the stitched and stitched nanocomposites had angular deformation of the stitching yarns in the fiber scissoring areas, shear hackles in the matrix and successive fiber breakages in the interlayers. Probably, this mechanism prohibited extensive interlayer opening in the nanostitched composites. The results exhibited that introducing the stitching fiber (1.44%) and multiwalled carbon nanotubes (0.03125%) in the base structure enhanced its transverse fracture properties as a form of confined delamination area. Therefore, the damaged tolerance properties of the stitched nanocomposites were enhanced.

Microscopy Analysis

Polyphenylene sulfide-based nanocomposites filled with unmodified multiwalled carbon nanotubes from 0.5 wt% to 8.0 wt% have been prepared by melt mixing technique with a single-screw extruder and hot press. Transmission electronic microscopy and scanning electron microscopy analysis were carried out in order to assess the multiwalled carbon nanotubes dispersion throughout the polyphenylene sulfide matrix. Electrical conductivity of the polymer was dramatically enhanced by about 11 decades between 2.0 wt% and 3.0 wt% of nanotubes, suggesting the formation of three-dimensional conductive network within the polymeric matrix. The storage modulus (G′) of neat polyphenylene sulfide presented an increase by two orders of magnitude when 2.0 wt% of pristine multiwalled carbon nanotubes was considered, with the formation of an interconnected nanotube structure, indicative of “pseudo-solid-like” behavior. In addition, percolation networks were formed when the loading levels achieve up to 1.5 wt% for multiwalled carbon nanotubes/polyphenylene sulfide composites.

Thermal Synthesis

Manganese decorated Multiwalled carbon nanotubes were synthesized through a simple solvo thermal method. The surface morphology and structural analyses of the MnO2 doped MCNT have performed by Transmission electron microscope (TEM), Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Morphological characterization reveals that three-dimensional hierarchy architecture built with a highly porous layer consisting of interconnected MnO2 uniformly coated on the CNT surface. The XRD and EDS results confirmed that the prepared samples containing MnO2/CNT in pure form without impurities. It also reveals that birnessite-type MnO2 is formed through the solvo thermal synthesis. The Optical properties of the prepared samples were examined by UV-visible spectrometer and Fourier transform spectroscopy. The UV-vis spectra of the nanoparticles indicate a decrease in the band gap from 1.037 to 0.999 eV. The results reveal the band gap shrinkage associated with Mn concentration more at high temperature phase and crystalline behavior. The composition of the prepared samples were characterized using Energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS).

Sensing Performance

The three-dimensional volumetric application of conductive poly (3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)/poly (4-styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) to multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) has not been widely reported. In this study, the applicability of the 3D PEDOT:PSS-MWCNT composite for a gas sensor was investigated with different PEDOT:PSS concentrations. The gas-sensing performance of the 3D PEDOT:PSS-MWCNT composites was investigated using ethanol and carbon monoxide (CO) gas. Overall, in comparison with the pristine MWCNTs, as the PEDOT:PSS concentration increased, the 3D PEDOT:PSS-MWCNT composites exhibited increased conductivity and enhanced gas sensing performances (fast response and recovery times) to both ethanol and CO gases. Importantly, although the PEDOT:PSS coating layer reduced the number of sites for the adsorption and desorption of gas molecules, the charge-carrier transport between the gas molecules and MWCNTs was significantly enhanced. Thus, PEDOT:PSS can be chemically grafted to MWCNTs to enhance the connectivity and conductivity of a 3D network, leading to possible applications in gas sensors.
