英文摘要Carbon nanotube (CNT)/epoxy composite is a star lightweight structure material. However, the reason why welldispersed CNTs retard the combustion of epoxy while CNT agglomerations always accelerate it instead seems still confusing, which severely limits the further understanding and design of the high-performance CNT/epoxy composite. Herein, with CNT agglomerations inside, 4coCNT/epoxy composite and 2coCNT0.5/epoxy composite were prepared to reveal the truth of the dramatically worsened flame retarding performances compared with their expected values. The void-rich CNT agglomerations were proved to be qualified candlewick-like fillers after directly observing the formations of micron-diameter fiber-like agglomerations by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and X-ray computed tomography (XCT); verifying the ability of CNT agglomerations to allow the epoxy melt to wet, spread, and flow on their surface. The thermogravimetric analysis (TG) and the limited oxygen index (LOI) results suggested that fire is necessary for the CNT agglomeration to worsen the thermostability of composites. With the presence of the liquid-phase combustible epoxy melt in the fire captured by a high-definition camera, all the requirements to induce the candlewick effect were satisfied. Ruling out a popular explanation that the agglomerated CNTs promote polymers' inflammability by cracking chars created during the combustion, a similar but distinct candlewick effect was then proposed and specially defined as "nano-candlewick effect" in the present study. The nano-candlewick effect defeated the flame-retarding free radical scavenging effect of the dangling bonds from coCNT and coCNT0.5, and further worsened the flame retardancy of the epoxy matrix. The detailed working mechanism of the nano-candlewick effect was described. The mechanism is supposed to be appropriate for polymer nanocomposites with candlewick-like fillers inside, and account for the dramatically accelerated combustion.
