Short Single Walled Carbon Nanotubes
Purity: > 65%, SSA: 400 m2/g, black
Short single walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs, SWNTs) consist of one-atom-thick graphene sheets rolled into long, hollow cylindrical structures. These short SWCNTs exhibit outstanding thermal, mechanical, and electrical properties, which contribute to enhanced performance across numerous materials and devices. They are widely utilized in fields such as energy storage, molecular electronics, nanomechanical devices, composites, and bio-sensing. We offer a variety of Short Single Wall Carbon Nanotubes with different purities and lengths at competitive prices.
