The Preparation and Characterization of NiTi/CNT/Polyurethane Composite

Article Preview

Abstract:

The polyurethane matrix composites consisting of CNT and NiTi springs are prepared and the microstructure, mechanical property and damping property of the composites are investigated. It was found that the CNT and NiTi spring exhibit a good interfactial bonding with the matrix. The elastic modulus and tensile strength have been enhanced by the addition of CNT and NiTi spring. The NiTi spring is helpful to increase the recovery strain and enhance the energy absorption of the composites by the pseudoelastic deformation under the large deformation. The NiTi spring can not increase the damping property under low vibration amplitude because the pseudoelastity of the spring is not actuated when the deformation is small.
