Carbon nanotube reinforced eonduetive polymer composites have also yielded promising results. It has been demonstrated that both single and multi walled carbon nanotubes ean be used to increase the conductivity and mechanical strength of conductive polymers [111, 112]. Studies show that the modulus of PANI can be inereased up to four times with the addition of as little as 2% carbon nanotubes [112]. Figure 13.14 shows PANI-carbon nanotube fibers fabricated by Mottaghitalab et al. Spinks et al. used carbon nanotubes combined with PANI in composite fibers. Their...
