Description
Carbon Nanotube (CNT) Nanoribbon Water Dispersion, 1 mg/mL
Carbon Nanotube Nanoribbons (CNT-NRs) represent a breakthrough nanomaterial developed by longitudinally unzipping multi-walled carbon nanotubes through chemical oxidation. This controlled unzipping produces flat, ribbon-like graphene-based structures with exposed edge planes, increased surface area, and enhanced chemical reactivity—attributes that are vital for applications in advanced electronics, energy storage, and functional materials.
This product is supplied as a 1 mg/mL water-based dispersion, offering higher concentration for increased process efficiency, improved uniformity in coating, and stronger functional performance across different application fields.
