Carbon nanotubes, nano-size cylinders made of carbon atoms, are attracting renewed interest for their role in the future of cars. Industry reports project that the global market for these ...

Carbon nanotubes and fullerenes are allotropes of carbon characterized by a hollow structure and extraordinary thermal, electrical and mechanical properties. Spherical fullerenes are also called ...

Carbon-based structures, such as carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have much higher electrical conductivity than copper, as does graphene. The main issue is that making wires out of them is not exactly ...

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) come in a variety of diameters, lengths, and functional group content. CNTs today are available for industrial applications in bulk quantities of metric ton quantities. Several ...

The layer of carbon nanotubes that the team inserted between the fiber-reinforced layers of the composite is so thin that ...

Schematic representation of carbon fiber preparation from polyacrylonitrile ... Although not as aggressively toxic as the multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) which the authors contrast with ...
