Abstract:A compressible single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) sponge was developed by a superfast flame burning method in less than 20[Formula: see text]s by moving polyurethane (PU) sponge template coated with SWNTs through an ethanol flame. By adjusting the geometries of the templates, the arbitrary shapes of the SWNT sponges composed of a unique network structure could be prepared as required. The SWNT sponges possessing good hydrophobicity and outstanding organic solvent adsorption capacity could adsorb various orga… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
