Emission of fine and ultrafine nanoparticle aerosols from composites functionalized with Multi-Wall Carbon Nano Tubes (MWCNTs) subjected to sliding wear: the influence of matrix material
While multi-wall carbon nanotube (MWCNT)-reinforced nanocomposites offer improved wear resistance, the health implications of released nanoparticle aerosols are a concern. This research aimed to understand the influence of matrix material on the tribological properties, microstructure, and triboemis...

| Sumario: | While multi-wall carbon nanotube (MWCNT)-reinforced nanocomposites offer improved wear resistance, the health implications of released nanoparticle aerosols are a concern. This research aimed to understand the influence of matrix material on the tribological properties, microstructure, and triboemission of MWCNT-functionalized polymer and cement composites. Key findings reveal that aerosol emission cannot be predicted solely based on porosity and mechanical properties. The observed variations in MWCNT effects across different matrix materials are attributed to the distinct dominant wear mechanisms in each. |
