Molecular characterization of macroscopic aerogels of single-walled carbon nanotubes
Belén Alemán, Juan J. Vilatela
Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) can be assembled into various macroscopic architectures, most notably continuous fibers and films, produced currently on a kilometer per day…
Tensile properties of carbon nanotube fibres described by the fibrillar crystallite model
J. C. Fernández-Toribio, B. Alemán, A. Ridruejo +1
This work presents a model that successfully describes the tensile properties of macroscopic fibres of carbon nanotubes (CNTs). The core idea is to treat such a fibre as a network…
Advanced Surface Chemistry Analysis of Carbon Nanotube Fibers by X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy
Belén Alemán, María Vila, Juan J. Vilatela
Carbon nanotube fibers are materials with an exceptional combination of properties, including higher toughness than carbon fibers, electrical conductivity above metals, large speci…
Gas-phase functionalization of macroscopic carbon nanotube fiber fabrics: reaction control, electrochemical properties and use for flexible supercapacitors
Daniel Iglesias, Evgeny Senokos, Belén Alemán +6
The assembly of aligned carbon nanotubes (CNT) into fibers (CNTF) is a convenient approach to exploit and apply the unique physico-chemical properties of CNTs in many fields. CNT f…
Large area photoelectrodes based on hybrids of CNT fibres and ALD grown TiO2
A. Moya, N. Kemnade, M. R. Osorio +4
Hybridisation is a powerful strategy towards the next generation of multifunctional materials for environmental and sustainable energy applications. Here, we report a new inorganic…
Manganese Dioxide Decoration of Macroscopic Carbon Nanotube Fibers: From High-Performance Liquid-Based to All-Solid-State Supercapacitors
Afshin Pendashteh, Evgeny Senokos, Jesus Palma +3
Supercapacitors capable of providing high voltage, energy and power density but yet light, low volume occupying, flexible and mechanically robust are highly interesting and demande…
Fractal carbon nanotube fibers with mesoporous crystalline structure
H. Yue, V. Reguero, E. Senokos +5
Macroscopic fibres of carbon nanotubes are hierarchical structures combining long building blocks preferentially oriented along the fibre axis and a large porosity arising from the…
Doping of Self-Standing CNT Fibers: Promising Flexible Air-Cathodes for High Energy Density Structural Zn-air batteries
Afshin Pendashteh, Jesus Palma, Marc Anderson +2
Finding proper electrocatalysts capable of efficient catalyzing both ORR and OER is of great importance for metal-air batteries. With increasing inclination towards structural and…
