Abstract
⺠Unidirectionally aligned CNW composite was developed by applying electrical field. ⺠CNW concentration governs the degree of CNW alignment under the field. ⺠The electric field was effective in aligning CNWs up to 4 wt% CNW concentration. ⺠Above CNW content of 4 wt%, CNW/PHBV and CNW/CNW interactions restrain CNW mobility. ⺠The aligned composite showed strong anisotropy.
