Carbon nanofibers (CNFs)
Carbon nanofibers is a supermaterial. It is stronger, more elastic, and lighter than steel. It conducts heat and electricity better than metals. And it can be used to thousandfold the surface of materials. Let’s take a closer look at these tiny fellows. What is a carbon nanofiber (CNF)? A carbon nanofiber (CNF) is a carbon-made material so thin that...
