A highly concentrated 3D macrostructure of individual multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) is practically realized in a ceramic environment with poreless/intimate interfaces by a scalable aqueous colloidal approach. This concept dramatically improves not only the transport property and network connectivity of the MWCNT 3D macrostructures (a DC-conductivity of nearly 5000 S m(-1) ) but also the strain tolerance of the ceramic environment. Such low-cost and novel MWCNT/ceramic hybrids have many potential functional and structural applications.
通过可扩展的水基胶体方法,在陶瓷环境中实现了具有无孔/紧密界面的个体多壁碳纳米管(MWCNT)的高度浓缩 3D 宏观结构。这一概念不仅极大地提高了 MWCNT 3D 宏观结构的传输性能和网络连通性(直流电导率接近 5000 S m(-1) ),而且提高了陶瓷环境的应变容限。这种低成本且新颖的 MWCNT/陶瓷复合材料具有许多潜在的功能和结构应用。
