New research suggests the jiggling motion of carbon nanotubes suspended in liquid solutions could have implications for the structure, processing and properties of nanotube fibers formed from those solutions.
Carbon nanotubeshollow, atom-thick tubes of pure carboncan already be formed into fibers stronger than steel and as conductive as metals, and Rice’s Carbon Hub is exploring ways to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by substituting carbon nanotube fibers for metals and other emission-intensive…
