Abstract:Dispersing
1D carbon nanomaterials (CNMs) for film processing traditionally
relies on surfactants or organic solvents. These methods, however,
raise environmental concerns and can negatively impact the final properties
of the CNMs. In this work we demonstrate that chitin nanocrystals
(ChNCs) synthesized via acid hydrolysis provide a greener pathway
for the development of waterborne CNMs-based inks, including single-walled
carbon nanotubes, multiwalled carbon nanotubes, and carbon nanofibers.
