摘要
We have prepared and evaluated the performance of natural graphite (NG)/agglomerated carbon nanotubes (ACNTs) composite materials for future mechanical dampening devices. The mechanical performance of a compressed mixture of NG and ACNTs was examined over the pressure range of 30-300 MPa. NG-ACNT composite materials showed improved performance over the ACNT materials alone. Nanocomposites containing 5% NG mixed with ACNTs had an expansion ratio of 2.
