Description
Carbon Nanotube (CNT) Nanoribbon Water Dispersion, 2 mg/mL
Carbon Nanotube (CNT) nanoribbons are an innovative form of carbon nanomaterials derived from multi-walled carbon nanotubes. These ribbon-like nanostructures are produced via chemical oxidation and longitudinal unzipping of CNTs using strong oxidizing agents. The resulting structure provides an expanded surface area and enhanced edge reactivity, making CNT nanoribbons highly attractive for various advanced applications.
This product is offered as a water-based dispersion at 2 mg/mL concentration, providing ease of use and effective integration into aqueous systems for research and development purposes.
The nanoribbons exhibit excellent electrical conductivity, mechanical flexibility, and chemical tunability, making them ideal for applications such as energy storage devices, sensors, composite materials, and electronic components.
