New perspectives in SWCNT applications: Tuball SWCNTs. Part 1. Tuball by itself—All you need to know about it
Year: 2022
Type: article
Abstract: This is not a comprehensive review on the topic of single walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs). Because it is very broad - a simple search on ‘carbon nanotubes’ provides well over a million citations - we are focusing on a brand of SWCNTs produced by our company, OCSiAl, trademarked as TUBALL™ or just Tuball. It is a well-known product on the market and there is a good citation record on the applications of Tuball in industry and research labs, see Fig. 1. Despite this, there is no published data in the literature properly referencing its quality and the examples of its applications are often left without sufficient characterization. Because of that, we feel that it is well overdue to have a proper summary accessible to many researchers. Besides, the beneficial properties of SWCNT augments in many applications very strongly depend on the quality of SWCNTs and the methods of their introduction into materials. We have a few successful demonstrations here, some of which have not been published yet, and a plenty of additional published results with Tuball nanotubes are included as well.
