Development and characterization of single wall carbon nanotube–Nafion composite actuators
(Elsevier: Materials Science and Engineering B, 2005-02-15)
The development and characterization of thin film polymeric actuators has been performed for single wall carbon nanotube (SWNT)–Nafion composite systems. Previous work in our laboratory illustrated that incorporation of ...
Fuel cell applications of nanotube-metal supported catalysts
(Materials Research Society Proceedings Fall 2002: Materials for Fuel Cells and Fuel Processors, 2002-12-02)
Novel carbon materials with nanometer dimensions are of potentially significant importance for a number of advanced technological applications. Within this report we describe the results for the electrochemical characterization ...
Single wall carbon nanotube-Nafion composite actuators
(The American Chemical Society: Nano Letters, 2002-11)
Single wall carbon nanotube (SWNT)-Nafion composite actuators have been demonstrated for 0.1-18% w/w doping of purified SWNTs within the polymer matrix. The high purity SWNTs, >95% w/w, were homogeneously dispersed into ...
Effects of adsorbed O2, H2, CO2 and H2O on the optical properites of pure and polymer encapsulated single walled carbon nanotubes
(American Physical Society: Annual APS March Meeting, 2002-03-18)
We have measured the optical absorption spectra of single wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) and SWCNT-polymer matrix samples at several temperatures and pressures. An in-situ cell was designed that allowed for heating of ...
