Nanofibers are Multi-wall Nanotubes
Nanofibers are 60-80 nm diameter multi-wall nanotubes. They are called nanofibers to distinguish them from very small nanotubes (<10 nm) that exhibit quantum effects. |
- Standard nanofiber paper
is 10 mils thick, with a density of approximately 0.15 g/cc. It is made from PR-25 nanofibers from Applied Sciences. The paper is ~90% porous, with good electrical conductivity. It is thoroughly wetted by water, alcohol, or epoxy resin. Because the paper consists of 100% nanofibers with no binder (binder is optional), the plain paper does not have the tensile strength of conventional cellulose paper, although it is easily handled. Nanofiber papers made with a binder are robust.
Custom Options
High Density nanofiber paper has a density of ~.22 g/cc, made from the same nanofibers as Standard paper above. It has a higher tensile strength than standard nanofiber paper, and slightly less electrical conductivity. It is also 10 mils thick. |
Other Options
- Thinner or thicker sheets,
- Perfluoroelastomer binder,
- Reinforced with a carbon mesh support,
- Custom sizes
- Custom compositions.
