    The highly exfoliated, oxygen-functionalized single-walled carbon nanotubes can be applied to LIBs designed for high-rate operations, fast charging, long-term cyclability and high gravimetric capacity through a sequential oxidation–reduction process. Read more
  • Applied Catalysis B: Environmental, 2020, A platinum nanowire electrocatalyst on single-walled carbon nanotubes to drive hydrogen evolution.
    Pertinent existing hydrogen technologies for energy storage require unsustainable amounts of scarce platinum group metals. 100 times lower Pt content induces comparable activity with facile synthesis of Pt nanowires (PtNW) on carbon nanotubes (SWNT). Read more

    Nickel 2,6-naphthalenedicarboxylate (NiNDC) is a model organic-based anode material with the structural uniqueness ultimately affords facile redox kinetics and outstanding electrochemical performance, while surpassing the performance of conventional lithium-ion battery organic-based anodes. Carbon nanotubes offer three-dimensional bicontinuous electron/ion conductive pathways toward organic-based active materials. Read more

Composites

  • Materials & Design, 2019, Simultaneous realization of conductive segregation network microstructure and minimal surface porous macrostructure by SLS3D printing.

    With a 60.43% of phase continuity of polyamide 6 phase in PNPS2, fiber-like morphology contributed to the increase of effective single-walled carbon nanotubes volume concentration with more filler-to-filler connection, resulting in the improvement in thermal conductivity. Read more
  • Carbon, 2019, Interfacially-grafted single-walled carbon nanotube / poly (vinyl alcohol) composite fibers.
    The positive mechanical performance - increased strength (up to 1100 MPa) and stiffness (up to 38.5 GPa) - in interfacially-grafted single-walled carbon nanotube / poly (vinyl alcohol) composite fibers were attributed to the increased degree of dispersion of the SWCNTs in the dope. Read more
  • AIP Conference Proceedings, 2019, Development of a colored GFRP with antistatic properties.
    This study shows that a modification with ultralow filler content of novel single wall carbon nanotubes converts an intrinsic insulating GFRP into one with antistatic properties. These properties remain even by adding pigments for customizing without affecting the wanted bright coloring (e.g. signal color). Read more
  • Macromol. Mater. Eng. ,2019, Hybrid Electroactive Shape Memory Polymer Composites with Room Temperature Deformability.
    A new hybrid Shape Memory Polymer (SMP) is developed by combining single‐walled carbon nanotubes into a polylactic acid and thermoplastic polyurethane system containing polyethylene glycol plasticizer. The presence of SWCNT can stabilize the SMP system and significantly enhance the shape‐fixing capability after deformation at room temperature conditions. Read more
