INTRODUCTION
Carbon nanotubes are long graphitic cylinders less than 100 nm in diameter. Their one-dimensional nature, combined with the strength of the bonds between carbon atoms, gives them such exceptional mechanical properties that, since their discovery, they have been considered the nec plus ultra of reinforcements for composite materials.
