Abstract
Methods and compositions are provided for the efficient and beneficial use of nanoparticulates, such as carbon nanotubes. In various embodiments, a nanoparticulate entrapped in a linear polymer, where the linear polymer is formed in the presence of the nanoparticulate, is provided. The entrapped nanoparticulate provides an efficient means to introduce nanoparticulates into compositions, such as resins and fiber-reinforced resins, allowing for increased dispersion and beneficial properties.
