PELCO^® Carbon Nanotubes SALE

Orders limited to stock on hand.

Single walled, Multi walled, Functionalized Carbon Nanotubes

The PELCO^® Carbon Nanotube product line consists of a complete line of Single walled, Multi walled and Functionalized carbon nanotubes. The single walled carbon nanotubes are manufactured using the arc discharge (ARC) method. The multi walled carbon nanotubes are made using the chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method. The purity of our CNTs ranges from 90% to 98%. The carbon nanotubes we offer are ideally suited for research and imaging applications.

The PELCO^® Carbon Nanotubes are characterized by:

Raman spectroscopy
Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA)
Scanning electron microscopy (SEM)
Transmission electron microscopy (TEM)

Functionalized carbon nanotubes allow integration of these new materials into different systems for technological and biomedical applications.

We offer the PELCO^® functionalized carbon nanotubes with:

Acidic modifications
Basic modifications

These modifications allow nanotubes to be soluble in a wide range of solvents. Modifications of the carbon nanotube allows the nanocarrier to deliver molecules for:

Optical signals
Drug delivery
Protein and nucleic acid targeting
Electronic inter systems crossing
Phase shifting
Electronic conduction

Applications
The strength and flexibility of carbon nanotubes makes them of potential use in controlling other nanoscale structures, which suggests they will have an important role in Nanotechnology Engineering. Currently carbon nanotubes are used in the following applications:

Electrical circuits
Structural Engineering Materials
Drug Delivery
Nanosensors
AFM tips
Photovoltaic Films
Bullet Proof Clothing
Optical Devices
