Despite their potential, there are several challenges associated with the use of MWCNTs:
Dispersion: Achieving uniform dispersion of MWCNTs in a matrix material is challenging due to their tendency to agglomerate. Functionalization: Modifying the surface chemistry of MWCNTs to enhance their compatibility with different materials requires precise control and can be complex. Cost: The production of high-quality MWCNTs can be expensive, limiting their widespread adoption. Environmental and Health Concerns: The potential toxicity of MWCNTs and their environmental impact are areas of ongoing research and regulation.
