Recycling materials, such as plastics and metals, is an attractive, but challenging path toward sustainable material ...

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 ...

Researchers have combined carbon nanotubes and nanoporous cellulose ... After solidification and removal of the excess liquid, the composite film is peeled from the substrate and can be used ...

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 ...

Surprisingly, we found that carbon nanotube fibers far exceed the recyclability ... "We hope this could pave the way for fully recyclable composites in aircraft, vehicles, civil infrastructures ...
