We report here the discovery of the smallest possible carbon nanotube. This has a diameter of 4 Å, which is the narrowest attainable that can still remain energetically stable, as predicted by ...

A group of scientists has developed special CO2-derived carbon nanotubes that can generate sustained plasma almost instantly when exposed to microwaves from a standard microwave oven. Plasma is the ...

Carbon nanotubes could revolutionize everything from space travel to medicine. Discovered in 1991, these tiny, incredibly ...

It seems like we hear about a new breakthrough in technology every other month and then we never hear about it again. Some of that is over optimistic, misunderstood and exaggerated reporting. But ...

A surprising discovery reveals that carbon nanotubes made from CO2 spontaneously create intense, stable plasma in ordinary ...

Carbon nanotube (CNT) fibers can be fully recycled without losing their structural or functional properties, offering a sustainable alternative to traditional materials like metals and polymers.

Researchers unveil 'surprising' breakthrough in carbon nanotube recycling, paving way for sustainable materials Discovery has far-reaching implications for manufacturing across sectors Date ...

In a significant step toward creating a sustainable and circular economy, Rice University researchers have published a landmark study in the journal Carbon demonstrating that carbon nanotube (CNT ...

In February 2025, global markets are navigating a complex landscape marked by U.S. tariff uncertainties and mixed economic signals, with major indices like the S&P 500 experiencing slight declines ...

The industry continues to refine manufacturing techniques and explore new applications, carbon-based semiconductors are set ...

Chinese researchers have managed to mimic nature to produce artificial leaves that can track the sun and split water efficiently.

“Nanotubes will outperform silicon as we finish these developments to overcome those final challenges,” Jinkins says, referring to the challenges of sorting, creating uniform films, and conducting ...
