The present work aimed to prepare and characterize carbon nanotube (CNT) buckypapers (BPs) and to provide a perspective on possible applications in the optical device industry and power generation through triboelectric nanogenerators. The CNTs were dispersed in aqueous solution with the aid of a dispersing agent and then vacuum filtered. The prepared buckypaper has low average optical reflectance and shows an improvement in electrical conductivity and power generation when silver nanowires were added. This material includes new horizons and future applications for carbon nanotube buckypapers,including aerospace applications.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
