Carbon materials are enabling materials for a number of structural applications in space,
missile, aircraft, nuclear, power generation, ground transportation in
addition to environmental and chemical industries, where demanding reliable
performance in adverse environment is critically needed. Significant progress has been made in the area related to research, design,
development, testing and commercialization of these materials all over
the world. However, significant challenges continue to remain, for
achieving further advancements in the properties of these materials for
maximum utility and widespread use. This has been the main driving force
for holding conferences around the globe on Carbon Nanotechnology:
Potential and Challenges for 21st century, bringing together academicians
and researchers in various disciplines to share the knowledge and
exchange views for useful industrial applications of these materials.

As usual, all papers
presented may be submitted for a publication of International conference
proceedings. Submitted manuscripts will be subjected to the usual
referee reviewing process. However, the strict rule will apply that no
manuscripts will be accepted after the last day of the meeting. This
will help avoid the usual long delay in publishing the Conference
Proceedings.
