Synergistic bond strengthening in epoxy adhesives using polydopamine/MWCNT hybrids

Polydopamine (PDA) was spontaneously coated on acid treated MWCNT or pristine MWCNT surface via oxidative polymerization. The effect of PDA modified MWCNT hybrids on the lap shear strength of epoxy/aluminum joints and the failure mechanisms were systematically investigated. The PDA/acid modified MWC...
