Particulate Matter (PM) has become an important source of air pollution. We proposed a flexible and lightweight carbon nanotube (CNT) composite air filter for PM removal. The developed CNT filtering layers were fabricated using a floating catalyst chemical vapor deposition (FC-CVD) synthesis process and then combined with conventional filter fabrics to make a composite air filter.

A Zn-CO battery offers a promising solution for CO reduction as well as energy storage applications. For this study, a Zn-CO battery was fabricated using a Carbon Nanotube (CNT) sheet as a cathode and a Zn plate as an anode.

The CNT nanostructure itself, as a one-dimensional material, limits the electron conduction path, thereby creating a unique heating phenomenon. In this work, we explore the possible correlation between CNT alignment in sheets and heating performance.
