Modelling clustering of vertically aligned carbon nanotube arrays [PDF]
Interface Focus, 2015 Previous research demonstrated that arrays of vertically aligned carbon nanotubes (VACNTs) exhibit strong frictional properties. Experiments indicated a strong decrease of the friction coefficient from the first to the second sliding cycle in repetitive measurements on the same VACNT spot, but stable values in consecutive cycles.

Tribological properties of vertically aligned carbon nanotube arrays and carbon nanotube sponge [PDF]
AIP Advances, 2020 Carbon nanotube (CNT) films showing excellent mechanical and frictional performances are one of the most competitive candidates for fabricating functional surfaces; in particular, the bulk form of the forest-like vertical aligned CNT (VACNT) film and CNT sponge are idea candidates for making a flexible solid lubricant surface due to the fact that their
