“Carbon Nanotubes Global Markets and Technologies 2024”
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are becoming increasingly prominent in the pharmaceutical industry due to their unique surface functionalization, high adsorption capacity, stability, and nanoscale channel structure, which allows them to easily penetrate cell membranes. These attributes make CNTs highly effective in encasing and delivering therapeutic compounds to specific areas within the body.
CNTs are categorized into two main types: single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs). SWCNTs consist of a single layer of graphene rolled into a cylindrical shape, while MWCNTs are composed of nested layers of single-wall nanotubes. Typically, SWCNTs range in diameter from 1 to 2 nanometers, while MWCNTs range from 2 to 100 nanometers. Their lengths can extend into the micrometer range. MWCNTs are commonly used in mechanical applications, while SWCNTs are ideal for electronic devices and sensors. With a high aspect ratio and a strength 100 times greater than steel at just one-sixth the weight, CNTs are an exceptional filler material used in windmill components, aircraft, and automotive industries (Solorio-Rodriguez et al., 2023).
Due to their superior conductivity and smaller size compared to silicon, CNTs hold significant potential to replace silicon in electronic devices, paving the way for advancements in the electronics industry. One key innovation is their ability to enhance silicon anodes in lithium-ion batteries, improving resilience and reducing wear during charge-discharge cycles. In 2024, NoPo Nanotechnologies, an India-based startup, will expand its SWCNT production capacity to serve global battery manufacturers and supply CNTs to chipmakers in Taiwan and Japan.
