Singly dispersed carbon nanotube/aluminum composites fabricated by powder metallurgy combined with friction stir processing (2012, background): “Carbon nanotubes (CNTs), either single-walled (SWCNT) or multi-walled (MWCNT), have attracted much attention as the ideal reinforcements for composites because of their extremely high elastic modulus (around 1 TPa) and strength (30–100 GPa) as well as good thermal and electrical properties [1–5].”
