Easier and Safer to Use Carbon Nanotubes in Polymer Nanocomposite
by Brian Wang from NextBigFuture.com on (#66927)
A research team from Skoltech, Aalto University, and Kurnakov Institute has recently developed a new, versatile and simple approach to using carbon nanotubes for manufacturing carbon nanotube-polymer nanocomposites. The method is reported in Carbon and involves making briquettes - dense packages of carbon nanotube powders. Nanocomposites made with briquettes perform equally well as those made ...
