Ama-carbon nanotubes anodonga olulodwa aqinile futhi asebenza ngogesi, futhi manje asetshenziswa kabanzi ezimbonini ze-aerospace, ezezimoto, ezokwakha, ezezimayini, ze-electronics nezokuthutha.Isicelo esikhula ngokushesha kakhulu se-single-wall carbon nanotubes sisemkhakheni wezimoto ezintsha zikagesi zamandla: lesi sithasiselo esisha singakhuphula kakhulu ukuminyana kwamandla amabhethri e-lithium futhi sithuthukise kakhulu ukusebenza kahle kwamandla ezimotweni zikagesi.
Ama-nanotubes e-carbon anesakhiwo esihle kanye nokuhamba kahle kukagesi, ngakho-ke angakwazi ukwakha inethiwekhi ye-electronic conduction enomphumela ofanayo nento esebenzayo ebhethri, ukuze izinhlayiya ezisebenzayo ze-electrode zibe nokuxhumana okuhle kwe-elekthronikhi, futhi ngesikhathi esifanayo, ingagwema into esebenzayo ngesikhathi sokushaja nokukhipha.Ukuhlukaniswa nokuhlukaniswa kwezinhlayiya zezinto ezisebenzayo ze-electrode okubangelwa ukunwetshwa nokufinyela, ngalokho kuthuthukisa ukusebenza okuphelele kwebhethri, njengokuthuthukisa ukuminyana kwamandla ebhethri nokuthuthukisa ukusebenza komjikelezo webhethri ngaphezu kokuhamba kahle kukagesi.

Ukusetshenziswa kwe-carbon nanotubes enodonga olulodwa kuma-supercomposites kuzonciphisa ukukhishwa kwe-carbon dioxide kakhulu kunezinye intuthuko yezobuchwepheshe emkhakheni.Kuzo zonke izigaba zomjikelezo wokuphila komkhiqizo, i-carbon nanotubes yodonga olulodwa inganciphisa ukusetshenziswa kwamandla, kuyilapho inciphisa inani lezinsiza ezidingekayo ekukhiqizeni, kanye nesisindo kanye nenani lezinto ezisetshenziswayo, okwandisa impilo yomkhiqizo.
