Carbon nanotubes/epoxy resin (EP) cellucotton composite was prepared on a large scale using EP as the precursor sol
aluminum plates covered with carbon nanotubes as substrate
by a simple and convenient electrospinning and collaborative pulling technology. The morphology
structure and composition of the obtained samples were investigated with scanning electron microscopy
thermogravimetric analyzer
mercury injection test and Raman spectroscopy. Carbon nanotubes were partly wrapped and distributed evenly on the surface of the EP fibers
and the composite structures had high specific surface area and porosity. The contact angle of the carbon nanotube/EP composite structure was 114.1° for water
and 66.8° for vegetable oil. The as-made carbon nanotubes/EP composites showed superior adsorption capacity for vegetable oil
which was better than polypropylene fiber
and could adsorb more than 10 times of oil in terms of their own mass.
