Abstract
This guideline presents methods for the preparation and investigation of samples of multiwall carbon nanotube-polymer composites by scanning electron microscopy. It is focused on multiwall carbon nanotube epoxy composite, but the strategy should be generally applicable to other types of polymer nanocomposite materials.
