Nanotubes as Natural Means for Reinforcing Concrete
Concrete, the second most important material in
construction after water, is advantageous however; its low tensile strength
requires reinforcement. Nanotubes are found to be promising natural materials
for the reinforcement of concrete at nano scales. IntroductionDifferent nanotubes suggested
as a natural means for reinforcing concrete are carbon nanotubes, clay
nanotubes, and cementitious nanotubes. The importance of concrete in the construction sector is undeniable due to i

Fuel Cells Development with Nanotechnology
Fuel cell is basically an electrochemical cell capable of converting
the chemical energy resulting from a chemical reaction of hydrogen and oxygen
as the oxidizing agent into electricity in a process called redox. Generally,
fuel cells differ from most of the available batteries due to taking the
advantage of a continuous source of fuel and oxygen in order to maintain a
chemical reaction. Discover the energy solutions of the future with Nanografi's revolutionary nanomaterials

Carbon Nanotube (CNT) Sponges
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are nanoscale, strong and hollow
cylinders which shows excellent mechanical and electrical properties. Based on
their orientation and configuration in the structure, they can be used in many
practical applications such as supercapacitors, catalytic electrodes, flexible
heaters, superhydrophobic coatings, biomimetic surfaces, artificial muscles,
and integrated microelectromechanical systems. IntroductionThese different forms of CNTs
can be vertically aligned arr

Multi-walled Carbon Nanotubes
The discovery of carbon nanotubes
(CNTs) in 1991 has stimulated intensive research to characterize their
structure and to determine their physical properties both by direct measurement
and through predictive methods using modeling techniques. Many of their
fundamental and remarkable properties are now well-known, and their
exploitation in a wide range of applications forms a large part of the research
effort now in progress. IntroductionThe electronic properties of carbon nanotubes (C

Carbon Nanotubes in Health Sector
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are cylindrical molecules that
comprise sheets of single-layer carbon atoms like graphene rolled up. CNTs
can be either single or double-layered. CNTs have many remarkable properties
and applications, but we will read mostly about their use in the health sector
because of small dimensions and their high surface area, which has the
capability of conjugating or absorbing with a broad range of diagnostic and
therapeutic agents. Considering these intriguing pr
