In this work, carbon nanotubes were deposited onto the insulative glass fibre surface to form a semiconductive network. Utilizing the unique properties of CNTs network, a multifunctional composite interphase could be achieved. The interfacial adhesion strength was improved by CNTs distributed in the interphase. The semiconductive interphase have been used as a chemical/phaysical sensor, strain sensor and microswitch.
