Description
Carbon Nanotube Fibers
Carbon Nanotube Fibers (CNT Fibres) offer a unique combination of exceptional tensile strength, lightweight structure, and electrical conductivity. These fibers, with a diameter ranging from 5 to 12 µm and tensile strength between 1200–1500 MPa, are ideal for high-performance applications that demand mechanical resilience and electronic functionality.
Due to their low density and superior conductivity (5×10⁴–7×10⁴ S/m), CNT fibers are widely used in next-generation smart textiles, embedded and stand-alone sensor systems, high-strength composites, and EMI shielding. Their multifunctional nature allows them to serve in diverse roles such as thermal management in aerospace, structural reinforcement in advanced composites, and responsive materials in UAV-based environmental sensing platforms.
