Fabrication of prototype flexible semi conducting thin film with carbon nano particles and carbon nanotubes using fish scale collagen

2014 
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) exhibit extraordinary physical and electronic properties because of their intermolecular structure. In this proposed researched paper we introduced a novel technique for the preparation of Carbon nanotubes using Allium cepa extract. Collagen thin film sheet is having a resistance of more than 10Mohms and it acts an insulator. Hence we want to prepare as a semiconducting collagen thin film, first, we incorporated a conducting ink to reduce the resistance to semiconducting range, less than 2M ohms. Therefore, a conducting ink was prepared by mixing carbon nanotubes, collagen and hydroxylethyl cellulose. Secondly, Collagen thin films were prepared using fish scales; it is an insulator thin film sheet which has flexibility and more physico-chemical strength.
