Strong and Highly Conductive Carbon Nanotube Fibers as Conducting Wires for Wearable Electronics

Carbon nanotube (CNT) fibers (CNTFs) have potential for use as conducting wires in wearable electronics, but this application requires significant improvement in the mechanical and electrical properties of CNTFs. This work describes the correlation between the synthesis conditions and the properties of CNTFs according to the configuration of the injection tube during the direct spinning process. Adjusting the configuration of the injection tube...
