Carbon Nanotube Sponges
CNT Sponges
Product Detail
CAS-No.: 1333-86-4
Carbon nanotube sponges (CNT) are created when carbon nanotubes self-assemble into a three-dimensional framework. The result is a sponge made up of tiny, hollow, strong carbon nanotube cylinders. CNT sponges are lightweight, elastic, chemically stable, and highly porous. In addition, they float on water, have a stable structure, and have a high surface area that is hydrophobic. Potential applications include:
- Environmental cleanup. CNT sponges show great promise for use in environmental issues such as water purification and oil spill cleanup.
- Catalysis. CNT sponges are ideal catalysts or as skeletons for loading other catalysts.
- Energy storage. Bulk CNT sponges serve as excellent electrodes for lithium-ion batteries because of their high surface are and electrical conductivity.
Carbon nanotube sponges from ACS Material are made to meet and exceed the highest quality standards. We offer four standard size blocks at 10 mg/cm3 density. Customization is also available; our technicians are able to create custom CNT sponges to meet your size (block size: 0.1-100mL) and density (5-50 mg/cm3) requirements.
