High-Purity Hydroxylated Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes

Product Overview
High-purity hydroxylated single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) are hollow cylindrical tubes made from a single layer of graphite hexagonal lattice, possessing excellent electrical, mechanical, and thermal properties. These nanotubes typically have a diameter in the range of 1-2 nm, with lengths extending from a few micrometers to several tens of micrometers. They are produced using the moving catalytic method, providing superior conductivity and thermal conductivity, making them ideal for high-performance applications in electronics, energy storage, and composite materials.
