Multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) have wide range of applications. Commercial MWCNTs have impurities, disorder and entangled structure, which limit its applications. In this respect, novel, low-energy consumption and friendly technique was applied to enhance its structure. The technique is operated during isometric process inside autoclave and based on thermal treatment of MWCNTs in the presence of solvent and pressure. It was used to enhance the oxidative thermal stability of MWCNTs. Thermal gravimetric analysis results showed an increase in onset temperature, activation energy of decomposition, and the temperature required to loss 75, 50, and 33 wt% as the treating temperature increased. Raman spectroscopy tests showed a decrease in the degree of disorder from 1.29 for untreated samples to 0.45 for samples treated at 250°C. The electrical resistivity of MWCNTs was increased from 0.33 Ω.cm for untreated samples to 0.54 Ω cm for 250°C treated samples. Advantages of thermal treatment of MWCNTs using this technique appeared in the presence of a percolation behavior for the AC electrical conductivity when a polymer matrix was loaded with it with a threshold percolation concentration of 0.7 wt%. Furthermore, Cole–Cole Z semicircles as well as Argand plots of the electric modulus appeared for polymer matrix loaded with thermally treated MWCNTs beyond the threshold percolation concentration.

Due to growing popularity of composites, modification methods to obtain the best properties are searched for. The aim of the study is to reduce the flammability of textile materials using nanocomposite polymer back-coating. Different types of carbon nanotubes (single- and multiwalled) and different phosphorus flame retardants (ammonium polyphosphates and melamine polyphosphate) were introduced into the resin and then the fabrics were covered by the obtained composites. Homogeneous dispersion of multiwalled carbon nanotubes in the polyurethane resin was obtained by sonification, which was confirmed by scanning electron microscopy. Flammability tests of fabrics coated by modified polyurethane resin were carried out using pyrolysis combustion flow calorimeter (PCFC) and thermal stability of textiles was evaluated. Also, organoleptic estimation of coatings was conducted (flexibility and fragility). The use of polymer nanocomposites with phophorus flame retardants as a back-coating for textiles effectively reduces flammability and improves thermal stability of the fabric. Furthermore, the synergistic effect beetwen carbon nanotubes and phosphorous compound occurs. The resulting coatings are flexible and do not crack or change the feel of fabrics.
