Polystyrene carbon nanotube nanocomposites

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) exhibit excellent mechanical, electrical, and magnetic properties as well as nanometer-scale diameter and high aspect ratio, which give them a great deal of attention and have been the focus of extensive research efforts as model systems in nanotechnology. Since CNTs usually...
