description There have been more studies on the characteristics and uses of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) in recent years as a result of the advancement of nanomaterials and nanotechnology. CNTs are used in a greater variety of applications due to their powerful adsorption, stable molecular structure, high thermal conductivity, and other qualities. This paper introduces the role of CNTs in textile, construction and environmental science. Specifically, in the textile industry, CNTs have the functions of electromagnetic signal shielding, UV protection and flexible sensing in the field of material strength and high-temperature resistance. In terms of building and construction, CNTs can be composite with cement and concrete to improve mechanical properties. In sewage treatment applications, CNTs are characterized by high specific surface area, high porosity, high hydrophobicity, and electrocatalysis. This paper provides a reference for the development of the above fields, refers to the problems existing in the practical application of CNTs, and prospects the deeper development of CNTs materials.
