Abstract
AbstractSince the carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have been discovered, there has been a marked increase in the scientific literature dealing with multi‐scale composites. The multi‐scale hybrid composites with CNTs could endow the composites with some superior mechanical properties, such as improving the tensile performance, modest increasing compressive and flexural properties, and significantly enhancing interlaminar, interfacial and fracture strength. In addition, composites with CNTs can also develop the functional properties. A small quantity of CNTs can significantly increase the electrical properties of composites and lower the coefficient of thermal expansion of composites. The purpose of this work is to review the available literature in mechanical and functional properties of multi‐scale hybrid composites manufactured using CNTs. POLYM.
