Nanotube rubber can operate from-200°C to 1000°C

摘要

New York - A paper published in the magazine Science in December, reports on research into carbon nanotube rubber.On page 1364 of the 3 Dec. issue, Xu et al. report another case of extreme mechanical performance of a carbon material-viscoelastic behaviour of nanotubes in a wide temperature range-that no other solid has shown so far.
