Aligned multiwalled carbon nanotube membranes.
An array of aligned carbon nanotubes (CNTs) was incorporated across a polymer film to form a well-ordered nanoporous membrane structure. This membrane structure was confirmed by electron microscopy, anisotropic electrical conductivity, gas flow, and ionic transport studies. The measured nitrogen permeance was consistent with the flux calculated by Knudsen diffusion through nanometer-scale tubes...
متن کاملSynthesis of Carbon Nanotube (CNT) Composite Membranes
Carbon nanotubes are attractive approach for designing of new membranes for advanced molecular separation because of their unique transport properties and ability to mimic biological protein channels. In this work the synthetic approach for fabrication of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) composite membranes is presented. The method is based on growth of multi walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) using chemic...
متن کاملFast mass transport through carbon nanotube membranes.
The May 19, 2006 issue of Science included a paper by Holt et al. on "Fast Mass Transport Through Sub-2-Nanometer Carbon Nanotubes". The paper was also featured on the cover, showing methane molecules translating inside a carbon nanotube (CNT). The authors explained how they prepared 2-6-mum thin membranes consisting of double-walled carbon nanotubes (DWNTs) all aligned perpendicular to the app...
متن کاملNucleic acid transport through carbon nanotube membranes.
We study the electrophoretic transport of single-stranded RNA molecules through 1.5-nm-wide pores of carbon nanotube membranes by molecular dynamics simulations. From approximately 170 individual RNA translocation events analyzed at full atomic resolution of solvent, membrane, and RNA, we identify key factors in membrane transport of biopolymers. RNA entry into the nanotube pores is controlled ...
متن کاملHigh density, vertically-aligned carbon nanotube membranes.
A method is presented to prepare high-density, vertically aligned carbon nanotube (VA-CNT) membranes. The CNT arrays were prepared by chemical vapor deposition (CVD), and the arrays were collapsed into dense membranes by capillary-forces due to solvent evaporation. The average space between the CNTs after shrinkage was approximately 3 nm, which is comparable to the pore size of the CNTs. Thus, ...
