A method and apparatus for uniformly and directionally aligning and stretching nanofibers inside a porous medium is described. The nanofibers may include nanotubes, nanowires, long-chain polymer molecules or likewise. Porous medium may include a porous layer, fabric, or composite prepreg or likewise. According to one embodiment, an apparatus for directional alignment of nanofiber in a porous medium includes a fluid matrix with nanofibers. A porous medium is provided as well as a device for forcing the fluid matrix radially through the porous medium. |
