Carbon Nanotubes: Present and Future Commercial Applications
2013年2月1日 · Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are seamless cylinders of one or more layers of graphene (denoted single-wall, SWNT, or multiwall, MWNT), with open or closed ends (1, 2). Perfect CNTs have all carbons bonded in a hexagonal lattice except at their ends, whereas defects in mass-produced CNTs introduce pentagons, heptagons, and other imperfections in the ...
Carbon nanotubes: synthesis, properties and engineering
2019年7月18日 · Carbon nanotubes (CNT) represent one of the most unique materials in the field of nanotechnology. CNT are the allotrope of carbon having sp2 hybridization. CNT are considered to be rolled-up graphene with a nanostructure that can have a length to diameter ratio greater than 1,000,000. CNT can be single-, double-, and multi-walled.
