AB  - HYPOTHESIS: The poor miscibility of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) in common organic 
      solvents and organic monomers requires their modification by suitable functional 
      (reactive or not) groups prior to their incorporation in thermoplastic polymers. 
      EXPERIMENTS: Dispersion behavior of carbon nanotubes and mechanical properties of 
      various CNT-poly(methylmethacrylate) (PMMA) nanocomposites were investigated. We 
      studied the influence of the surface chemistry through the use of diazonium salts 
      as an elegant and environmentally friendly platform to provide a suitable 
      sidewall functionalization by methyl methacrylate functions. We used either a 
      molecular size functional group through the grafting of 
      methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane or a macromolecular size one, consisting in 
      PMMA brushes grown by SI-ATRP in order to study the influence of the length of 
      methacrylate function on the dispersion of CNT in PMMA. FINDINGS: The hardness 
      and the elastic indentation modulus of all hybrid films were obtained through 
      nanoindentation measurements and found to increase, using ATRP-modified CNTs, 
      suggesting a better dispersion of CNTs in PMMA due to optimal inorganic-organic 
      interactions promoted by the short chains of PMMA.
