Better Dispersion and Processing Enabled by Stacked-Cup Carbon Nanotube Technology
Pyrograf®-III stacked-cup carbon nanotubes, also known as carbon nanofiber, possesses a unique morphology not available in other nanomaterials. Pyrograf®-III nanofiber has a tubular structure with the sidewalls composed of angled graphite sheets. This morphology termed “stacked-cup” carbon nanotubes” generates a fiber with exposed edge planes along the entire surface of the fiber. These edge sites are highly reactive and allow chemical modification of the fiber surface for maximum mechanical reinforcement in polymer composites. This open architecture also facilitates rapid intercalation and de-intercalation of heterogeneous atoms.
