Keywords : Carbon nanotubes network * electrical resistance * compressive deformation
Subject RIV: BK - Fluid Dynamics

The network of entangled multiwall carbon nanotubes is shown to be a conductor whose resistance is sensitive to compressive strain both in the course of strain growth and when loading/unloading cycles are imposed. The cycles at first lead at to the resistance decrease but with a higher number of cycles they fade away.
