Stiffness, strength and interwall sliding in aligned and continuous multi-walled carbon nanotube/glass composite microcantilevers

Individual perfect multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) can exhibit exceptional properties, such as an elastic modulus of ∼1 TPa. However, integration of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) in bulk ceramic composites has not yet resulted in the significant improvements in mechanical properties that such data sug...
