Load transfer and deformation mechanisms in carbon nanotube-polystyrene composites

TL;DR: In this paper, in situ transmission electron microscopy studies provided information regarding composite deformation mechanisms and interfacial bonding between the multi-wall carbon nanotubes and polymer matrix, indicating significant load transfer across the nanotube-matrix interface.
Journal ArticleDOI

Enhanced flow in carbon nanotubes

TL;DR: It is shown that liquid flow through a membrane composed of an array of aligned carbon nanotubes is four to five orders of magnitude faster than would be predicted from conventional fluid-flow theory.
Journal ArticleDOI

Aligned multiwalled carbon nanotube membranes.

TL;DR: An array of aligned carbon nanotubes (CNTs) was incorporated across a polymer film to form a well-ordered nanoporous membrane structure, which was confirmed by electron microscopy, anisotropic electrical conductivity, gas flow, and ionic transport studies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Continuous production of aligned carbon nanotubes: a step closer to commercial realization

TL;DR: In this paper, high-purity aligned multi-walled carbon nanotubes were synthesized through the catalytic decomposition of a ferrocene-xylene mixture at ; 6758C in a quartz tube reactor and over quartz substrates, with a conversion of ; 25% of the total hydrocarbon feedstock.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nanoscale hydrodynamics: Enhanced flow in carbon nanotubes

TL;DR: This article showed that liquid flow through a membrane composed of an array of aligned carbon nanotubes is four to five orders of magnitude faster than would be predicted from conventional fluid-flow theory.
