ABSTRACT:
Composites of ceramic materials, notably alumina or metal oxides in general, with single-wall carbon nanotubes are consolidated by electric field-assisted sintering to achieve a fully dense material that has an unusually high fracture toughness compared to the ceramic alone, and also when compared to composites that contain multi-wall rather than single-wall carbon nanotubes, and when compared to composites that are sintered by methods that do not include exposure to an electric field.
