SWCNT TUBALL as a universal conductive additive in plastics

Ilin E.S., Bezrodny A.E., Predtechenskiy M.R., OCSiAl LLC (OCSiAl Group), US

The development of electro-conductive plastics filled with SWCNTs is demonstrated. A number of different plastics filled with TUBALLTM such as polyethylene, polypropylene, ABS-plastic, polystyrene etc. exhibit electrical resistance in the range of 10^8-10^4 Ω*cm. The [...]

Carbon Nanotube Silicon Heterojunction Solar Cells

Yu L., Tune D., Shapter J., Flinders University, AU

Due to the high cost of silicon photovoltaics there is currently great interest in finding alternative semiconductor materials for light harvesting devices. Single walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) are an allotrope of carbon having unique electrical [...]

Nanodelivery of Cerebrolysin Induces Profound Neuroprotection in Heat Stroke Following Chronic Hypertension in Combination with SiO2 and Carbon Nanoparticles Induced Exacerbation of Brain Damage

Muresanu D.F., Sharma A., Sharma H.S., Patnaik R., Nozari A., Mössler H., Tian Z.R., Ozkizilcik A., Sharma A., Sharma H.S., Uppsala University, SE

Our military personals are often exposed to combat stress induced hypertension in an environment rich in various nanoparticles emanating from different sources e.g., gun powder explosion or blast injuries. Furthermore, combat or peacekeeping activity in [...]

Single Wall Carbon Nanotube Inhibition of DNA Damage

Nelson B.C., NIST, US

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are remarkable materials in terms of their enhanced thermal and electrical conductivities, tensile strengths and mechanical properties. However, our understanding of the potential environmental, health and safety risks of these novel nanomaterials [...]

SWCNT/Inorganic polymer nanocomposite: a new class of Transparent Conductor and UV-Vis Photo – Generator

Bose S., Balaji S., Debnath R., Jadavpur University, IN

Synthesis of a light sensitive SWCNT/(Pb, Zn)-phosphate glass composite and it’s optical, light induced ESR, electronic and optoelectronic properties are reported. Absorption spectrum of SWCNTs of the composite differs from that of its film. Since [...]

A novel technique using SWCNTs to enhanced development and root growth of fig plants (Ficus carica)

Flores D., Chaves J.S., Chacón R., Schmidt A., Instituto Tecnologico de Costa Rica, CR

The overall goal of this project is to look at possible mechanisms to explain the effects of SWCNTs in plant growth and its antimicrobial properties in order to reduce the use of harmful chemicals in [...]
