Abstract
This reference reflects the latest research trends in the metal matrix-carbon nano tube (CNT) composites. It highlights critical issues involved in processing metal matrix composites and suggests some solutions to them. The book also discusses attempts on different CNT reinforced metal matrix composites and gives a thorough picture of the achievements from scientific and applications points of view. The book explores the mechanisms by which CNTs are enhancing the properties of different metal based composites, helping readers to develop a deep insight into this field. It provides a guide to choosing potential materials for use in emerging areas of technology-- Provided by publisher.
