Nanotube superfiber materials : changing engineering design

Nanotube superfiber materials : changing engineering design / edited by Mark J. Schulz, Vesselin N. Shanov, Zhangzhang Yin.

Nanotube Superfiber Materials refers to different forms of macroscale materials with unique properties constructed from carbon nanotubes. These materials include nanotube arrays, ribbons, scrolls, yarn, braid, and sheets. Nanotube materials are in the early stage of development and this is the first...
