- The authors put forward in earlier publications the concept of using carbon nanotubes (CNT) in order to improve the functional characteristics of selected structural components of internal combustion engines. The main goal of applying carbon nanotubes is to take advantage of its unique properties, which cannot be found among traditional construction materials, to reduce emissions and fuel consumption. To achieve this goal it is essential to come to know about elements and materials behaviour in specific application, for example piston or catalytic converter. In this article, selected methods in the field of atomic physics applied to the study of experimental engine components produced using nanotechnology are presented. For example, the electron microscopy in conjunction with registration of the characteristic X-ray and Raman spectroscopy were used. These test methods are improving the knowledge of the properties and design of pistons and catalytic converters with surface coated with multi-walled carbon nanotubes. The results of elements surface analysis, which were diverted from the engines after a series of test stand investigations, offer insight into the processes that take place in layers of carbon nanotubes in actual engine operating conditions. The knowledge gained with application of atomic physics methods allows achieving further improvement of carbon nanotubes layers and its functional characteristics.
