Carbon nanotubes are emerging as the cornerstone of advanced materials, enabling higher performance, scalable integration, and sustainable solutions across industries
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are emerging as a cornerstone material for next-generation industries, enabling breakthroughs in electric vehicles, aerospace, energy storage, and flexible electronics through their unique combination of lightweight structure, exceptional electrical conductivity, and superior mechanical and thermal performance. Beyond enhancing product reliability and efficiency, innovations in CNT synthesis from CO2, biomass, and waste streams are advancing global decarbonization goals while creating new opportunities for sustainable nanomaterial investments. This study provides a comprehensive analysis of the CNT landscape, covering advances in scalable synthesis routes, cost optimization strategies, and integration processes that support mass-market adoption. It highlights critical industry pain points across electronics, automotive, aerospace, construction, and healthcare that can be addressed through CNT-enabled solutions. The report also maps the broader innovation ecosystem, profiling key players, academic contributions, patent landscapes, and funding dynamics. Finally, it identifies growth opportunities where CNTs not only improve performance and reliability but also align with ESG priorities, supporting material circularity and long-term competitiveness.
