Abstract:We report herein, a scalable method for the preparation of alumina (Al 2 O 3 )-phosphate ceramics reinforced with carbon nanotubes (CNTs). All composites were manufactured by direct on-site growth of CNTs on ceramic particles via catalytic chemical vapour deposition. Introduction of catalyst metals to the substrate was achieved through two simple approaches, drip-coating and vacuum filtration, both of which have been reviewed. Transmission electron microscopy was utilised to investigate the interface between t… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
