Designing Neat and Composite Carbon Nanotube Materials by Porosimetric Characterization [PDF]

Nanoscale Research Letters, 2017
We propose a porosimetry-based method to characterize pores formed by carbon nanotubes (CNTs) in the CNT agglomerates for designing neat CNT-based materials and composites. CNT agglomerates contain pores between individual CNTs and/or CNT bundles (micropore  50 nm).
