技術應用

Commercial applications for this material include: Ruggedized circuitry substrates Electrically conductive components Advanced ceramics for aerospace and defense High temperature severe load conditions Cutting tools and wear components

詳細技術說明

A ceramic composite material with improved thermal, electrical and mechanical properties has been developed by researchers at the University of California, Davis through the incorporation of carbon nanotubes into a ceramic matrix. Using novel powder preparation and consolidation techniques, single wall carbon nanotubes (SWCN) and nanopowders of alumina are combined into a composite with remarkable properties.
