• In this paper, the " " interphase parameter in the Pukanszky model and interphase strength for polymer carbon nanotube (CNT) nanocomposites are expressed by the critical interfacial shear strength ( ) and interfacial shear strength ( ) between a polymer matrix and CNTs. A suggested model and a developed Pukanszky model for tensile strength of nanocomposites are combined to develop the equations for " " and interphase strength. Many experimental data for various samples confirm the models. The impacts of all parameters on the " " and interphase strength are explained to approve the developed equations. The contour plots display the same trends for the roles of all parameters in the " " and interphase strength. Low " ", high " ", thin and large CNTs as well as a dense interphase are ideal to obtain the high levels for " " and interphase strength. Among the studied parameters, CNT size largely controls the " " and interphase strength, while the waviness and strength of CNTs play insignificant roles.
