Malaysian palm oil for carbon nanotubes preparation

Carbon nanotubes The discovery of ‘fullerenes’ added a new dimension to the knowledge of carbon science1; and the discovery of ‘carbon nanotubes’ (CNTs, elongated fullerene) added a new dimension to knowledge of technology2. Today, ‘nanotechnology’ is a hot topic attracting scientist, industrialists, journalist, governments, and even the general public. Nanotechnology is the creation of functional materials, devices and systems through control of matter on the nanometer scale and the exploitation of novel phenomena and properties of matter (physical, chemical, biological, electrical, etc.) at that length scale. CNTs are supposed to be the key component of nanotechnology. Almost every week a new potential application of CNTs is identified, stimulating scientists to peep into this tiny tube with ever increasing curiosity.
