  1. 1. Embedding Carbon Nanotubes Sensors into Carbon Fiber Laminates

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Riccardo Andolfi; [2022]
    Keywords : Multifunctional Materials; Sensing Abilities; Carbon Nanotubes; Carbon Fibers; Analytical Modelling; Finite Element Modelling; Multifunktionella Material; Avkänningsförmåga; Kolnanorör; Kolfibrer; Analytisk Modellering; Finita Elementmodellering;

    Abstract : The use of Fibre Reinforced Polymer (FRP) composite materials in structural applications has increased in the past decades in high­performance sectors, such as in the automotive and aeronautic industries, for weight reduction purposes. However, FRP composite materials can offer more significant innovation potential. READ MORE

  2. 2. Synthesis of Graphene - Carbon Nanotube Hybrid Structures

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Aniruddha Paul; [2021]
    Keywords : Graphene; Carbon nanotubes; Graphene-CNT hybrid structures; Chemical Vapor Deposition CVD ; Grafen; Kolnanorör; Grafen-CNT-hybridstrukturer; Kemisk ångdeposition CVD ;

    Abstract : Graphene and Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have been researched for more than a decade due to their extraordinary properties and advantages towards applications like electronics, structural re-enforcements, thermal management and energy storage. Graphene-CNT hybrid structures have been predicted to further enhance the exceptional properties and overcome some of the shortcomings of the individual materials. READ MORE

  3. 3. Dustiness Testing and Particle Characterization of CNT-enhanced Concretes

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Ergonomi och aerosolteknologi

    Author : Sara Marsh; [2021]
    Keywords : concrete; dustiness; airborne particles; carbon nanotubes; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The introduction of fibers into concrete is a common way of reinforcing the mechanical properties and preventing cracking. The fibers act as bridges between the composite components and help reduce the porosity. Today, micrometer-sized fibers are widely used, but there is an increased interest in using smaller fibers e.g. READ MORE

  4. 4. Study on the impact of CNT or graphene reinforced interlaminar region in composites

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

    Author : Tobias Karlsson; [2019]
    Keywords : Carbon fiber composite; electrical conductivity; electromagnetic interference shielding effectiveness; CNT; Buckypaper;

    Abstract : The interlaminar region is a contributing factor to the limited electrical conductivity of carbon fiber/epoxy composites. Consisting of electrically insulating epoxy matrix between conductive layers of carbon fiber, the interlaminar region prevents electrical interaction between the carbon fiber layers and electrical conduction in the through thickness direction.

  5. 5. Printed transparent conducting electrodes based on carbon nanotubes (CNTs), reduced graphene oxide (rGO), and a polymer matrix.

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

    Author : Md Mazharul Islam; [2019]
    Keywords : CNTs; GO; rGO; PVP;

    Abstract : The main focus of this project was to prepare transparent and conductive electrodes (TCEs). TCEs were made out of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), reduced graphene oxide (rGO), and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP). READ MORE
