Abstract

In the present investigation, the optical characteristics epoxy resin reinforced with multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) are were investigated. The influence of the MWCNTs weight percentage (wt.-%) on the optical characteristics of epoxy/MWCNTs nanocomposites. The results revealed that the absorption intensity of the epoxy resin was improved by the dispersion of the MWCNTs.
