Engineers to develop process for sorting carbon nanotubes

Abstract:
Engineers at Archimedes Polymer Technologies (APT) and Brunel University have secured Technology Strategy Board funding to develop a new continuous flow process for separating and sorting commercially available carbon nanotubes and carbon nanomaterials.

Carbon nanomaterials are one of the most commercially relevant classes of nanomaterials, potentially having the broadest range of applications from composites to consumer mass electronics, energy storage, membranes, healthcare, and toxicity assessments. But for high-value applications, high-purity, uniform carbon nanotubes are essential.
