No carbon nanotubes do not function as a super plasticiser I don't think.Super plasticisers usually have free hydroxyl or carboxylic groups to allow them to wrap around and "hold on" to the metal oxo silicates , reducing the requirement for excess water in a concrete mix (to allow workability); increasing the strength by lessening water without making the concrete impossible to work.
Eden's tubes will add a composite type strength at a microscopic level to provide the flexural strength increase.
They add wear and abrasion resistance by adding a lubricity to the set concrete...allowing things to slide past easily, probably like adding carbon to steel gives an iron that can run against other surfaces.
I haven't looked much into them but I don't think they would provide much plasticising effect.
