Mechanically robust and electrically conductive carbon nanotube foams

Abstract

We describe the fabrication of ultralow-density carbon nanotube (CNT) foams that simultaneously exhibit high electrical conductivities and robust mechanical properties. Our approach utilizes carbon nanoparticles as a binder to crosslink randomly oriented bundles of single-walled CNTs. The resulting CNT foams are the stiffest low-density nanoporous solids reported and exhibit elastic behavior up to strains as large as ∼80%. The use of the carbon binder also allows bulk electrical conductivity to be maintained at low densities.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
