Description
Carbon Nanotubes Doped with 50 wt% Titanium (Ti) Nanopowder/Nanoparticles
This titanium-doped carbon nanotube hybrid material combines the superior electrical conductivity and structural integrity of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) with the lightweight strength and corrosion resistance of titanium (Ti) nanoparticles. With 50 wt% Ti uniformly distributed, this nanocomposite offers enhanced mechanical durability, thermal stability, and electrochemical behavior for advanced technological applications.
The Ti nanoparticles are black, spherical in shape, with a 50 nm average particle size and a high purity of 99.9%. Their specific surface area ranges from 60 to 90 m²/g, contributing to excellent surface interaction and load distribution in composites. When merged with high-purity (>97 wt%) MWCNTs—renowned for their conductivity (>98 S/cm) and high aspect ratio—this composite provides a multifunctional solution for nanotech innovations.
