Mass production of carbon nanotube reinforced poly(methyl methacrylate) nonwoven nanofiber mats

Rapid and low temperature spark plasma sintering synthesis of novel carbon nanotube reinforced titanium matrix composites

“…Fig. 15 also suggests that the improvement of the conductive properties of the MWCNTs/Ti composites is limited, compared to that of MWCNTs/polymer composites[83,84]. The morphology of MWCNTs may affect the electrical conductivity of the composites in two ways: (i) MWCNTs with high aspect ratio ensure a more effective electron conduction path along the individual nanotubes; (ii) As discussed above, well-dispersed and homogeneously distributed MWCNTs contribute to achieve more compact structures so that the electron tunneling distances between Ti matrix and MWCNTs decrease.…”

Electrospun Pd nanoparticles loaded on Vulcan carbon/ conductive polymeric ionic liquid nanofibers for selective and sensitive determination of tramadol

“…This electrostatic technique involves the use of a high voltage polymer solution droplet, thereby inducing the ejection of a liquid jet through a spinneret [7]. The compositing of nanofibers with nanostructures such as carbon materials [8,9], metals [10], or photocatalytic semiconductors [11] have been intensively studied as a method to further develop and enhance the functionality of electrospun nanofibers. Pd nanoparticles (PdNPs) have the reputation of being one of the most efficient metals in many fields due to their high catalytic activities to different types of reaction, excellent economic benefits, good electrical conductivity and optical properties [12,13].…”

Preparation and low-temperature gas-sensing properties of SnO2 ultra-fine fibers fabricated by a centrifugal spinning process

“…Centrifugal spinning has been reported as an efficient and rapid method to fabricate ultra-fine fibers [17]. Karen Lozano and coworkers produced, on a large-scale, multi-walled carbon nanotubes (CNT) reinforced by polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) conductive non-woven nanofiber composite mats by forcespinning technology [18]. Chen and Liao prepared polylactic acid nanofibers with improved mechanical properties using an electrospinning technique with an additional centrifugal field [19].…”
