Multi-walled carbon nanotubes/woven kenaf fabric-reinforced epoxy laminated composites

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of adding 1 vol% of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) into woven kenaf/epoxy laminated composites on their flexural properties and to compare between two techniques used to incorporate MWCNT into the composite which are spraying and solution t...
