Abstract

Silicon dioxide glass rods of micrometer sizes were synthesized by using surfactantcarbon nanotube co-micelles as templates. These glass rods were used as additives to reinforce inorganic ceramics. The mechanical strength of the silicon dioxide ceramic is enhanced by ∼100% in the presence of ∼6 wt% of CNTs.
