General description

Carbon nanopowder possesses excellent propertiessuch as a huge electroactive surface area, high thermal and electricalconductivity, biocompatibility, and high porosity. It is widely used in thefields of catalysis, adsorbents, electrochemical sensing, bioimaging,reinforcement filler, and renewable energy devices.

Application

Carbon nanopowder can be used:
  • To fabricate anode material for a microbial fuel cell for bioelectricity generation.
  • To prepare nanopowder embedded graphite paste matrix for electrochemical sensing of biologically active compounds such as raloxifene (anticancer drug).
  • To enhance the electromechanical potential of polymer composites thatare used as actuators in telerobotics and medicine.

Preparation Note

Amorphous materials formed by laser techniques.
