Abstract
A prior thermal (pre-curing) treatment of mixtures of epoxy monomer and amino-functionalized carbon nanotubes (CNTs) was used to promote a chemical reaction between the matrix and the reinforcement, favouring the formation of a strong interface. Samples of epoxy resin and different weight percentages of amino-functionalized multi-walled CNTs were prepared with and without the pre-curing treatment (150 °C, 1 h). The degree of dispersion of the nanofiller was better when this
