Here we have prepared B4C/CNTs composites using the spark-plasma sintering (SPS) method. Mechanical property measurements reveal obvious enhancement confirming the fabrication of true B4C/CNTs composite materials with improved toughness properties.The addition of 1wt% CNTs in the B4C increased the fracture toughness by about 1.6 times from 2.5 to 4 MPa.m1/2 because the CNTs presented at the B4C grain boundaries, made the length of cracks shorten.

Carbon nanotube-mullite (Al2O3/SiO2=3/2) composites have been prepared by hot-pressing the corresponding composite powders, in which the multi-walled carbon nanotubes(1~10 vol%) are homogeneously dispersed between the mullite grains. The microstructure of the specimens has been studied and discussed in relation to the properties of the matrix, the bending strength and the fracture toughness, the dielectric constant and the dissipative factor. Carbon nanotube-mullite composites are potential electromagnetic wave absorbers owing to the percolation of the carbon nanotubes.

Abstract Multi-walled carbon nanotubes/strontium hydroxyapatite (MWCNT/SH) composite was synthesized, where CNTs were applied to improve the properties of HAP and increase the reinforcement of the composite. The composite CNTs/Sr-HAP and its precursor Sr-HAP were successfully applied in removal of Co(II) and Eu(III) ions from aqueous solutions. Sorption of Co(II) and Eu(III) onto the synthesized sorbents was investigated as a function of contact time and pH. The synthesized sorbents highly removed the studied radionuclides from their aqueous solutions with necessary time of 6 h to reach equilibrium. The maximum sorption capacity was 33.31 and 48.93 mg g−1 for Co(II) sorption onto Sr-HAP and CNTs/Sr-HAP composite at pH 4.5, while it was 115.74 and 127.11 mg g−1 for sorption of Eu(III) onto Sr-HAP and CNTs/Sr-HAP composite at pH 2.5, respectively. Desorption of Co(II) and Eu(III) from loaded samples was studied using various eluents and maximum recovery was obtained using FeCl3 and HCl solutions. Co(II) was completely separated from Eu(III) by a ratio of 85.1 % using Cd(NO3)2 as an eluent in CNTs/Sr-HAP composite packed column.
