Composite fabrics of conformal MoS2 grown on CNT fibers: tough battery anodes without metals or binders
Moumita Rana, Nicola Boaretto, Anastasiia Mikhalchan +3
In the quest to increase battery performance, nanostructuring battery electrodes gives access to architectures with electrical conductivity and solid-state diffusion regimes not ac…
Identification of Collapsed Carbon Nanotubes in High-Strength Fibres Spun from Compositionally Polydisperse Aerogels
Maria Vila, Seungki Hong, Seunggyu Park +4
Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs) of sufficiently large diameter and a few layers self-collapse into flat ribbons at atmospheric pressure, forming bundles of stacked CNTs that maximize packi…
Understanding cooperative loading in carbon nanotube fibres through in-situ structural studies during stretching
J. C. Fernández-Toribio, A. Mikhalchan, C. Santos +2
Carbon nanotube (CNT) fibres are firmly established as a new high-performance fibre, but their tensile mechanical properties remain a relatively small fraction of those of the cons…
A Perspective on High-performance CNT fibres for Structural Composites
A. Mikhalchan, J. J. Vilatela
This review summarizes progress on structural composites with carbon nanotube fibres. It starts by analyzing their development towards a macroscopic ensemble of elongated and align…
A Route to High-Toughness Battery Electrodes
N. Boaretto, J. Almenara, A. Mikhalchan +2
There is increasing interest in materials that combine energy-storing functions with augmented mechanical properties, ranging from flexibility in bending to stretchability to struc…
