We have used natural language processing to identify the most prominent and emerging applications, associated materials, and properties of carbon nanotubes in journal and patent publications from 2020-2022. We have combined this with our in-depth landscape analysis to show that polymer-matrix composites, sensors, biomedical applications, and batteries have been the most prominent applications over last 20 years. Among these, battery applications have a significantly higher patent-to-journal publication ratio, indicating relatively higher commercial R&D activity in this area.
