Description
Carbon Nanofibers (CNFs), Purity > 95%, Outside Diameter: 200–600 nm
Carbon nanofibers (CNFs) are high-aspect-ratio carbon nanostructures composed of graphitic layers arranged in stacked or herringbone configurations. With diameters ranging from 200 to 600 nm and lengths up to 55 μm, these materials combine low weight, excellent thermal/electrical conductivity, and high surface area—making them highly suitable for modern advanced material design.
Thanks to their scalable synthesis via chemical vapor deposition (CVD), CNFs offer a cost-effective and reliable solution for both research and industrial-scale applications requiring uniform morphology, electrical functionality, and high purity.
