| BuckyPaper- Carbon Nanotube Paper |
|
NanoLab prepares BuckyPaper, a sheet form of our carbon nanotubes, in various sizes and thickness for your research and development needs. BuckyPaper is made from our 95% purity multiwall carbon nanotubes, and can be made from our single-wall or double-wall nanotubes on request.
|
|
Preparation: |
To prepare the BuckyPaper sheet, nanotubes are suspended in a fluid, then filtered onto a membrane support. After drying, the paper is removed from the support, leaving a free-standing paper.
|
|
Porosity & flow: |
Standard BuckyPaper is ~50% dense, and can be tailored for particular applications. Our testing shows that standard BuckyPaper excludes the passage of colloidal particles ~50nm and larger.
|
|
Electrical: |
The resistance of BuckyPaper was measured by sputtering gold contacts on a strip of nanotube paper with dimensions 3.3mm wide by 0.13mm thick. The two point resistance measured over a 7.8mm gap was ~18ohms. The resistivity of the paper is ~ 0.1 ohm-cm.
|
|
Mechanical: |
BuckyPaper can be folded, cut with scissors, like notebook paper. We are currently investigating its mechanical properties after infiltrating the paper with epoxy base matrix phases.
|
|
Usage: |
Electrochemical electrodes, filters, scaffolds, cell culturing, composites. |
