CARBON NANOTUBE YARN, THREAD, ROPE, FABRIC AND COMPOSITE AND METHODS OF MAKING THE SAME

摘要

There is disclosed a material comprising an assembly of at least one spun yarn substantially comprising carbon nanotubes, a majority of which are longer than one millimeter, such as longer than one centimeter, chemically interlinked one to another, and arranged in the morphology of spiral configurations. The disclosed materials may take the form of a yarn, thread, rope, or fabric. There are also disclosed composite materials constructed from the disclosed materials.
