Plasma-Treated Carbon Nanotubes in Aerospace Epoxy Prepregs: From Surface Chemistry to Interlaminar Toughness
Author: [Bruce Zhou]Affiliation: [Jota Machinery Composites Material Prepreg Solution]Corresponding Author: [jotamachinery@gmail.com]Published : December 08 , 2025 Abstract Aerospace-grade epoxy matrices offer high stiffness and strength but remain intrinsically brittle, limiting damage tolerance and delamination resistance in unidirectional (UD) carbon-fibre laminates. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are an attractive nano-toughener, yet their practical use is constrained by dispersion […]
