abstract = "In this study, the corrosion behaviour of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) coated basalt fibre (BF) (BFCNTs) obtained by chemical vapour deposition (CVD), was studied. During CVD, the CNTs were grown on BF, (a) at different growth temperatures and (b) for different growth times. The physicochemical measurements were performed using X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, and field-emission scanning electron microscopy. The corrosion performances were investigated using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), potentiodynamic sweep (PDS), linear polarization resistance (LPR) and weight loss measurements. The BFCNT prepared at 650 degrees C for 120 min exhibited the best corrosion stability during the prolonged exposure to 0.1 M NaCl electrolyte. The outcomes of this study would be useful in designing the carbon nanotubes coated basalt fibre with the best corrosion resistance.",
