The grafting reaction was characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectrometer (XPS), Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and the resultant CNTs-PA was soluble and stable in polar solvents Chloroform. Thiol-ene (TE)\/CNTs-PA nanocomposites were prepared via Ultraviolet curing. The flame retardancy of thiol-ene nanocomposites was improved, especially for the heat release rate. Moreover, the results from Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Dynamic mechanical thermal analysis (DMTA) showed that the CNTs-PA improved the dispersion of CNTs in thiol-ene and enhanced the interfacial interaction between CNTs-PA and thiol-ene matrix.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/polym13193308","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,9,28]],"date-time":"2021-09-28T21:38:09Z","timestamp":1632865089000},"page":"3308","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":18,"title":["Flame Retardancy and Dispersion of Functionalized Carbon Nanotubes in Thiol-Ene Nanocomposites"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"13","author":[{"given":"Jiangbo","family":"Wang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Materials and Chemical Engineering, Ningbo University of Technology, Ningbo 315211, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,9,28]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","first-page":"27","article-title":"From gas barriers to high gas flux membranes: UV-cured thiol-ene networks for transport applications","volume":"4","author":"Goetz","year":"2014","journal-title":"Radtech.
