Abstract:

The carbon nanotubes with its stable structure, excellent mechanical properties, become the ideal enhancement phase of composite materials. The enhancement effect is affected by various factors, interface is one of the key factors determine its enhancement effect, also is the research focus of metal matrix composites. Briefly introduced carbon nanotubes reinforced aluminum matrix (CNTs/Al) composite material interface bonding mechanism and interface effect on the properties of composite materials, thermal expansion coefficient and preparation methods were reviewed, purity of carbon nanotubes and other factors impact on CNTs/Alcomposites interface, and puts forward the way to improve interface.
