Carbon Nanotubes Description
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are tubes made of carbon with diameters typically measured in nanometers. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are cylindrical molecules that consist of rolled-up sheets of single-layer carbon atoms (graphene).
SAM supplies Single-Walled(SW) and Multi-Walled(MW) Carbon Nanotubes. Carbon nanotubes content > 95 wt%. Functionalized by -OH or -COOH
Length: 5-25 um
Ash: <2.0 wt%
Features:
- Exceptional Strength: Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are one of the strongest materials known, with remarkable tensile strength.
- Outstanding Conductivity: CNTs exhibit exceptional electrical conductivity, enabling their use in various electronics applications. They can serve as efficient conductors for microelectronics, sensors, and transparent conductive films.
- Superior Thermal Properties: CNTs possess outstanding thermal conductivity, making them valuable for applications in heat management and dissipation. They find use in heat sinks, thermal interface materials, and advanced cooling solutions.
- Lightweight: Despite their incredible strength, carbon nanotubes are extremely lightweight. This characteristic is advantageous in industries where weight reduction is critical, such as aerospace and automotive.
Versatility: CNTs can be functionalized to tailor their properties for specific applications. Functionalization allows for the customization of surface properties and enhanced compatibility with different materials.
