Spray coating process of MWCNT/epoxy nanocomposite films for aerospace applications: Effects of process parameters on surface electrical properties
Nanocomposite coatings on flexible membranes possess many interesting properties useful in aerospace applications, such as thermal blankets and charging mitigation layers. However, their fabrication is not trivial and the overall performance is strongly dependent on the manufacturing process, since it influences the filler distribution and so the homogeneity of the coated film. In this work, carbon nanotube/epoxy nanocomposite films were deposited on Mylar substrates by spray coating process.
