The present study concerns study of the Bulk and nano-mechanical properties of Ag-CNT vis-à-vis Ag reinforced polymer composites. The Ag-CNT hybrid powder blend was prepared by mechanical milling. Variation of the bulk and nano-mechanical properties has been attributed to the morphological features and the degree of dispersion of the fillers. It has been found that dispersion of Ag-CNT hybrid particle is beneficial for improvement of both the mechanical properties. POLYM.
