【 摘 要 】

The effects of multi walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) on thermal stability andmechanical properties of ramie fiber reinforced epoxy resin composite s were studied. I nthis paper, MWCNT was used as the nano sized reinforc ed material The epoxy resincomposite s with different MWCNT contents w ere prepared by vacuum aided resininfusion process ( VARI). T he influence of MWCNT contents on thermal stability andmechanical properties of the composite was analyzed by experimental methods. Theresults show ed that the vicat softening temperature , bending strength and impact strengthof epoxy resin composite with MWCNT and ramie fiber was improved greatly. Moreover ,the morphology of fracture sur face evaluated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM)showed that adding of MWCNT is helpful to get better interface adhesion between ramiefiber and epoxy resin matrix.
