The remarkable physical properties of carbon nanotubes and their versatile chemical reactivity leading to various types of surface organo-functionalization were the main reasons why CNTs have become one of the most important types of nano-additives for the development of novel polymer (including epoxy) nanocomposites with improved and sometimes unique properties. The present chapter deals with the organo-functionalization of carbon nanotubes and the preparation of the respective epoxy – CNT nanocomposites. The effect of functionalization on dispersion of CNTs and on the final properties of the nanocomposites is discussed, while emphasis is given on the reactivity of the functional groups and their participation in the curing process of epoxy resins.
