It aims to investigate the tensile characteristics of Multiwall Carbon Nanotubes (MWCNTs) reinforced epoxy composites. Tensile test specimens of the composite were fabricated by increasing concentration of surface modified MWCNTs using molding method at room temperature. The investigation clearly exhibits the 1.25wt.% of epoxy/MWCNTs nanocomposites have enhanced tensile characteristics. These results suggest that targeted chemical modification of the carbon nanotube surface is an effective way to enhance the mechanical properties of carbon nanotube-polymer composites. The optimum loading of MWCNTs in polymeric host has been evaluated.
