Abstract
Ceramic materials are converted to materials with anisotropic thermal properties, electrical properties, or both, by forming the ceramics into composites with carbon nanotubes dispersed therein and uniaxially compressing the composites in a direction in which a lower thermal or electrical conductivity is desired.
