METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR USING A VERTICAL FURNACE TO INFUSE CARBON NANOTUBES TO FIBER

摘要

A method for forming a CNT infused substrate comprises exposing a catalyst nanoparticle, a carbon feedstock gas, and a carrier gas to a CNT synthesis temperature, allowing a CNT to form on the catalyst nanoparticle, cooling the CNT, and exposing the cooled CNT to a surface of a substrate to form a CNT infused substrate.
