Spark plasma sintering of carbon nanomaterials

The data on spark plasma sintering (SPS) of carbon nanomaterials (CNMs) are summarized for the first time in this review. An information about the properties and possible applications of the prepared consolidates depending on the SPS temperature and pressure is presented. Probable sintering processes and mechanisms are considered. A special section is devoted to CNM consolidates with metals or oxides. Application of such composites in the hydrogenation of carbon oxides is considered.
