Excerpt

The use of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) as fiber reinforcement in polymer matrix composites is currently being investigated because of their superior mechanical, electrical, and thermal properties [1]. However, recent research has raised some concerns that the widespread use of CNTs may lead to mesothelioma, cancer of the lining of the lungs, just like asbestos [2]. During the machining of the CNT-reinforced composites, CNTs may be pulled out of the polymer matrix and spewed into the air, where they present health risks. To ensure safety in using and manufacturing CNT-based products, a detailed understanding of the CNT pullout from a polymer matrix is essential. …
