However, the incompatibility of CNTs with the polymer matrix is still a major barrier facing the practical realization of these materials. Interface engineering and modification have become the current strategy for enhancing their compatibility, dispersion, and interfacial relationship with the polymer matrix to meet the desired engineering properties and applications.\n\nPolymer Nanocomposites: Interface Engineering of Carbon Nanotubes, Advanced Properties, and Recent Applicati.
