Thermal conductivity of individual multiwalled carbon nanotubes
Thermal conductivity of individual multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) is measured using a pulsed photothermal reflectance technique. Intrinsic thermal conductivity of individual MWCNT with a diameter 150 nm and length 2 mm at room temperature is extracted to be 2586 W/mK. Individual MWCNT is surrounded by SiO2, so parallel resistor model is applied in which SiO2 supportive is treated as a con...
متن کاملNegative stiffness and enhanced damping of individual multiwalled carbon nanotubes
The mechanical instabilities and viscoelastic response of individual multiwalled carbon nanotubes and nanofibers (MWCNTs/Fs) under uniaxial compression are studied with atomic force microscopy. Specific buckling events are evident by regimes of negative stiffness, i.e., marked drops in force with increasing compression. Uniaxial cyclic loading can be repeatedly executed even in initially postbu...
متن کاملShell buckling of individual multiwalled carbon nanotubes using nanoindentation
Although the mechanical behavior of carbon nanotubes has been studied extensively in recent years, very few experimental results exist on the shell buckling of nanotubes, despite its fundamental importance in nanotube mechanics and applications. Here we report an experimental technique in which individual multiwalled carbon nanotubes were axially compressed using a nanoindenter and the critical...
متن کاملNonlinear mechanical response and rippling of thick multiwalled carbon nanotubes.
The measured drop of the effective bending stiffness of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) with increasing diameter is investigated by a generalized local quasicontinuum method. The previous hypothesis that this reduction is due to a rippling mode is confirmed by the calculations. The observed ripples result from a complex three-dimensional deformation similar to the Yoshimura buckling patte...
متن کاملMultiwalled Carbon Nanotubes: Environmental Application
The high external surface area leads to a significant increase in the surface contact between the gaseous or liquid reactants and the active phase supported on this nanostructured host which is a prerequisite for its use as catalyst support, especially in liquid phase medium where diffusion rate is predominant [2]. Also, the strong interactions between the exposed prismatic planes and the depos...
