Abstract

Enhancing the alignment of CNTs in polymer matrix is important to promote the application and development of polymer/CNT nanocomposites. In the review, we summarized the advances on the alignment of CNTs in polymer matrix, including exo-situ alignment, force field-induced, magnetic field-induced methods and electrospinning process.
