Abstract: Nano composites with magnesia refer to a broad range of composite materials with magnesia acting as the matrix and carbon nano material acting as the filler. The effect of the resins like epoxy and phenol formaldehyde in the formation of the CNTs in the nano composite was studied. The reinforcement of carbon nano particle in the MgO matrix along with the resins in the reduced atmosphere at high sintering temperature at1100⁰C, 1300⁰C and 1500⁰C for 3hrs were observed. Characterization was done by using XRD, Raman spectroscopy, SEM and FESEM. MgO with epoxy resin and carbon nano particle exhibited proper distribution of carbon on magnesia which was fully coated with carbon. The MgO with nano carbon and phenyl formaldehyde fired upto 1300oC also showed proper distribution of carbon on magnesia grain with some graphitization of carbon which was confirm by X-ray diffraction. The diffraction pattern and spectra from the Raman spectrophotometer of the magnesia composition with phenyl formaldehyde resin fired at 1500oC in reducing atmosphere suggest well distributed coating of carbon and formation of multi walled carbon nano tube. From the scanning electron microscopy of this composition reconfirmed proper distribution of MWCNT above magnesia grains. The field emission electron microscope confirm the nucleation of MWCNT in the presence of the phenol formaldehyde resins and nano carbon particle above magnesia grains at higher temperature in reduced atmosphere due to higher resin carbon and increase in the rate of diffusion in the matrix.
