The Future Beckons:
CNT Composites
Huge potential
Acid treatment
Metal catalyst exposed to acid and solvated
Annealing
Nanotubes will be rearranged and defects will be consumed at high
temperatures (873 – 1873 K)
Ultrasonication
Agglomerates of different nanoparticles forced to vibrate and
will become more dispersed.
Magnetic Purification
Ferromagnetic (catalytic) particles are mechanically removed from their
graphitic shells
Micro filtration
Based on size or particle separation
Cutting
Chemically
Mechanically
Combination
Functionalisation
Making SWNTs more soluble than the impurities by attaching other groups
to the tubes
Chromatography
Separate small quantities of SWNTs into fractions with small length and
diameter distribution
SEM Characterization at Different Stages Of
purification
Images of (a) c-SWNT, (b) residue from 1600g, (c) residue from 16000g,
(d) supernatant from 16000g, (e) residue from 325000g, and (f) supernatant from 325000g.
The Making Of…
CNT Composites
Single Wall Carbon Nanotube/Polyacrylonitrile
Composite Fiber
Optical properties
Have electroluminescent properties, and are widely used in light-emitting
diodes
Mechanical properties
Incorporation of SWNTs into polymer matrix increases the tensile
strength and Young’s modulus
Electrostatic Applications
In Aircraft Components
Enhanced Electrical conductivity provide electrostatic discharge and
electromagnetic radio frequency interference protection
Photovoltaic devices
Electronic Textile applications
Electronic textile applications promising for Composite Carbon Nanotube fibers,
which are easily woven or sewn into textiles are:-
Distributed Sensors
Electronic Interconnects
Electromagnetic Shielding
Antennas
Batteries
High Strength Applications
Structural Composites
