The project aims to develop novel drawn polymer fibres with aligned carbon nanotubes incorporated inside and also grafted nanotubes on their surface. Such polymer fibres can be used to reinforce thermoplastics to make high performance composites with effective recyclability. This is important as the existing thermosetting composites are not recyclable and significant property enhancement require high loading (>30%) of reinforcing fibres. The outcomes of this project will be novel technology for making high stiffness polymer fibres and their use in thermoplastic composites. The benefits will be to allow easy processing and recycling. They will be used in down-sizing of high volume products and high value automotive or aerospace products.

该项目旨在开发新型的吸引聚合物纤维，其中包含在内部的碳纳米管，并在其表面上移植了纳米管。这样的聚合物纤维可用于增强热塑性塑料，以使高性能复合材料具有有效的可回收性。这很重要，因为现有的热固性复合材料不可回收，并且显着的性质增强需要高负载（> 30％）的增强纤维。该项目的结果将是制造高刚度聚合物纤维及其在热塑性复合材料中的新技术。好处是允许易于处理和回收。它们将用于缩减大型产品和高价值汽车或航空航天产品。
