CNT (carbon nanotube) yarns stretched in tension as mechanical springs are used to drive both electrical and mechanical loads in order to demonstrate the CNT yarns' potential for high power density, their potential for metered energy release, and their application to power practical systems. The...

In situ synthesis of Pd nanoparticles supported on multiwalled CNT (carbon nanotubes) is reported. The size of the nanoparticles can be easily tuned via application of different experimental conditions. The hydrogen storage properties of Pd supported on CNT at room temperature were examined in...

The present study aims to quantify experimentally the individual and simultaneous effects of CNTs (carbon nanotubes) and advanced surfaces on the performance of an NH3/LiNO3 tubular bubble absorber. Operating conditions are those of interest for use in air-cooled absorption chillers driven by...

A thermally reduced graphene oxide (TRGO) grown with carbon nanotubes composite (G-CNT) was utilized as three-dimensional highly conductive carbon scaffolds, where a large amount of small and homogeneous Pt nanoparticles (from 3.37 ± 1.22 to 4.24 ± 1.83 nm) was directly synthesized on...
