How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

The addition of highly conductive materials, such as carbon nanotubes into SiC matrix can significantly improve the functional (electrical and thermal) properties of porous SiC ceramic.This study investigates the effect of carbon nanotubes (CNT) on the electrical and thermal conductivities of porous SiC ceramics sintered at 2050 °C for 2 h in a nitrogen atmosphere.The porosity of the newly developed porous SiC ceramics increased from 71.2% to 77.5% as CNT
