Role of TiO2 and carbon nanotubes on polyethylene, and effect of accelerated weathering on photo oxidation and mechanical properties حسب Zagho M.M.

"…Addition of CNTs had negligible effect on the tensile strength but it kept the same approximate value of the original before the accelerated weathering (e.g., 23.2 MPa for 1 wt% of CNTs). CNTs also protected the samples even with the presence of TONPs because of the absorbance and antioxidants effects. …"
