abstract = "Pristine multiwalled carbon nanotubes (P-MWCNTs) were
functionalized with carboxylic groups (MWCNT-COOH) through
oxidation reactions and then reduced to produce hydroxyl groups
(MWCNT-OH). Pristine and functionalized MWCNTs were used to
produce poly(hydroxybutyrate-co-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV)
nanocomposites with 0.5 wt% of MWCNTs. MWCNT functionalization was
verified by visual stability in water, infrared and Raman
spectroscopy, and zeta potential measurements. Pristine and
functionalized MWCNTs acted as the nucleating agent in a PHBV
matrix, as verified by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC).
However, the dispersion of filler into the matrix, thermal
stability, and direct current (DC) conductivity were affected by
MWCNT functionalization. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) showed
that filler dispersion into the PHBV matrix was improved with
MWCNT functionalization. The surface roughness was reduced with
the addition and functionalization of MWCNT. The thermal stability
of PHBV/MWCNT-COOH, PHBV/P-MWCNT, and PHBV/MWCNT-OH nanocomposites
were 20, 30, and 30 °C higher than neat PHBV, respectively, as
verified by thermogravimetry analysis (TGA). Addition of pristine
and functionalized MWCNTs provided electrical conductivity in
nanocomposite, which was higher for PHBV/P-MWCNTs (1.2 x 10-5 S
cm-1).",
