The Methods and Technique of Alignment of Carbon Nanotubes during the Processing of CNTs/Polymer Composite Materials
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs)possess excellent mechanical and electrical properties
but the random state of CNTs in their composite materials limits greatly to embody these performance .The approaches to align CNTs in composite materials processing were summarized in this paper .The main approaches including external force
electric field
magnetic field
liquid crystalline phase were introduced and the advantages and disadvantages of these approaches were evaluated .It can be concluded that the carefully designed force field
electric field
magnetic field and liquid crystalline phase enables CNTs to align in polymer composites processing
and thus improve the mechanical and electrical properties of polymer composites but the degree of alignment in all mentioned approaches has to be improved in the future .
