As such, various systems involving the efficient dispersion of both rubber particles and carbon nanotubes are being tested in order to obtain the optimal balance between toughness and stiffness. In ...

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 ...

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 ...

"A polymer composite consists of several layers of carbon or glass fibers impregnated with epoxy resin and sintered together. Their diameter is 5–10 microns, compared to 50–150 microns for ...

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