Abstract
A method for manufacturing metal-CNT composites is disclosed. The method comprises providing an agglomerate of CNTs, filling interstices of the CNT agglomerate in a plating solution, so as to form a metal phase, in which the CNTs are embedded. The CNT agglomerate is compressed with a clamping appliance when the metal phase is formed. A further aspect of the invention relates to metal-CNT composites with high CNT content.

A method for producing a metal-CNT composite material, comprising:
- providing an agglomerate of carbon nanotubes
- filling interstices of the carbon nanotubes agglomerate in a plating solution, so as to form a metal phase, in which the carbon nanotubes are embedded;
- wherein the carbon nanotubes agglomerate is compressed with a clamping appliance when the metal phase is formed.
A metal-CNT composite material, comprising:
- an agglomerate of carbon nanotubes embedded in a metal phase occupying interstices of the carbon nanotubes agglomerate;
- characterized in that the metal-CNT composite material contains at least 45% by volume of carbon nanotubes.
