چکیده
Among the different nanostructures involved in improvement of material properties, carbon nanotubes occupy a specific place because their small refractive index, extended surface, and large Young’s module, which can all provoke dramatic change basic matrix characteristics. Inorganic crystals, semiconductors, metals, conductive compounds, some polymer structures whose surfaces are treated with demonstrate better features than ones obtained before deposition. Thus, areas application for these unique nanostructure materials be effectively extended, e.g., optoelectronic use, biomedicine, display applications. In current paper, advantages laser-oriented deposition technique shown order to how main parameters drastically through incorporation nanotubes.

Artificial Neural Network Based Prediction Hardness of Al2024-Multiwall Carbon Nanotube Composite Prepared by Mechanical Alloying
In this study, artificial neural network was used to predict the microhardness of Al2024-multiwall carbon nanotube(MWCNT) composite prepared by mechanical alloying. Accordingly, the operational condition, i.e., the amount of reinforcement, ball to powder weight ratio, compaction pressure, milling time, time and temperature of sintering as well as vial speed were selected as independent input an...
متن کاملImprovement of the mechanical properties of single-walled carbon nanotube networks by carbon plasma coatings
Carbon vacuum arc was used to deposit 5–25 nm thick carbon coatings on single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) networks. The SWCNT bundles thus embedded in conformal coatings maintained their optical transparency and electrical conductivity. Sheet resistances of the networks were measured during the vacuum arc deposition, revealing initially a 100-fold increase, followed by significant recovery a...
متن کاملSuperhydrophobic conductive carbon nanotube coatings for steel.
We report the synthesis of superhydrophobic coatings for steel using carbon nanotube (CNT)-mesh structures. The CNT coating maintains its structural integrity and superhydrophobicity even after exposure to extreme thermal stresses and has excellent thermal and electrical properties. The coating can also be reinforced by optimally impregnating the CNT-mesh structure with cross-linked polymers wi...
متن کاملCarbon Nanotube Chemical and Mechanical Sensors
A single-walled carbon nanotube (SW-CNT) is a nano scale tube formed by a cylindrical shell of single atomic layer of carbon atoms. Nanotubes have diameter of a few nm and length up to 100μm so that they form extremely thin wires. The atomic structure of SWCNT can be formed by wrapping a stripe of single atomic layer of graphite sheet along a certain direction, and this direction determines the...
متن کاملWetting transparency of graphene.
We report that graphene coatings do not significantly disrupt the intrinsic wetting behaviour of surfaces for which surface-water interactions are dominated by van der Waals forces. Our contact angle measurements indicate that a graphene monolayer is wetting-transparent to copper, gold or silicon, but not glass, for which the wettability is dominated by short-range chemical bonding. With increa...
