The Molecular Mechanics Model of Carbon Allotropes
Carbon can form numerous allotropes because of its valency. Graphene, carbon nanotubes,capped carbon nanotubes, buckyballs, and nanocones are well-known polymorphs of carbon.Remarkable mechanical properties of these carbon atoms have made them the subject of intenseresearch. Several studies have been conducted on carbon nanotubes or graphene. In the presentstudy, the molecular mechanics method ...
متن کاملPolyimide/Carbon Nanotube Composite Films
Low color, space environmentally durable polymeric films with sufficient electrical conductivity to mitigate electrostatic charge (ESC) build-up have potential applications on large, deployable, ultra-light weight Gossamer spacecraft as thin film membranes on antennas, solar sails, thermal/optical coatings, multi-layer insulation blankets, etc.. The challenge has been to develop a method to imp...
متن کاملDirect fabrication of single-walled carbon nanotube macro-films on flexible substrates.
We employed a floating chemical vapor deposition technique and applied a liquid (solution)-free precursor system for the fabrication of single-walled carbon nanotube macro-films on various flexible substrates from metallic foils to polymer films.
متن کاملMechanics of carbon nanotube scission under sonication.
As-produced carbon nanotubes come in bundles that must be exfoliated for practical applications in nanocomposites. Sonication not only causes the exfoliation of nanotube bundles but also unwanted scission. An understanding of how precisely sonication induces the scission and exfoliation of nanotubes will help maximising the degree of exfoliation while minimising scission. We present a theoretic...
متن کاملContinuous Manufacturing of Aligned Carbon Nanotube Films
We present a continuous manufacturing process for low-cost and scalable production of vertically aligned carbon nanotube (CNT) forests, along with continuous rolling of the CNTs to create horizontally aligned (HA) CNT ribbons and sheets. These methods are capable of producing uniform films over waferscale dimensions and beyond, and the CNTs can be patterned by lithography and plasma etching to ...
