Abstract. This review explores the state-of-the-art applications of various kinds
of carbon nanotubes. We will address the uniqueness of nanotubes that makes them
better than their competitors for specific applications. We will discuss several ex-
amples of the already existing commercial uses of nanotubes and then point out
