Abstract
Carbon nanotube (CNT) hybrid fabric is formed by combining CNT materials (e.g., powder, tapes, or sheets) with other materials, such as carbon fibers (chopped, tape, or fabric form), metal and nonmetal nanoparticles, or polymers to form a composite fabric or laminate with improved properties compared to either component material alone. The CNT hybrid fabric provides a wider range of properties that can be obtained relative to pristine CNT fabric. Flexible CNT hybrid fabric can be used for clothing, as air and water filters, laminated composite material reinforcement, heat straps, electromagnetic shielding, inflatables, electrical conductors, and many other textile-based applications. This chapter gives an overview of methods to form various CNT hybrid materials and discusses several applications.
