Characterization of carbon nanotube aluminium nano composite- effect of ball milling time on particle size

The discoveries of carbon nano tube change the direction of the research in the field of fibrous materials and are attracting much interest as reinforcement to aluminium matrix for carbon nano tubes (CNTs) aluminium (Al) matrix nano-composite. This is due to unique properties such as high strength...
