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 ...

We report here the discovery of the smallest possible carbon nanotube. This has a diameter of 4 Å, which is the narrowest attainable that can still remain energetically stable, as predicted by ...

The "Global Advanced Carbon Materials Market - Materials and Applications" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering. The global demand for Advanced Carbon Materials is estimated at ...

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 ...

"By using two different sources of carbon nanotubes, we ensured that our recycling process was representative of real-life conditions," said co-first author Michelle Durán-Chaves, a graduate ...

Rice University researchers published a study in the journal Carbon, demonstrating that carbon nanotube (CNT) fibers can be recycled without losing their structure or properties, supporting ...

Toxicological and pharmacological studies suggest guidelines for the safe use of carbon nanotubes in medicine. In their latest study 3, the authors dispersed 50 μg of nonfunctionalized MWNTs of ...

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 ...
