Nanotubes have never ceased to make object of research around the world. The scientific community has high hopes on these nanomaterials seen their exceptional properties and their various applications. They are so successful is because they have properties unsurpassed in many areas. They have excellent properties which can be used in many applications extending from macroscopic to nano composite materials. Here we present an overview of the different properties of these nanomaterials and their applications.
