Owing to an extremely fine structure
that has a diameter measuring on the nanometer-scale (thin tube-shaped
material) and superior physical and chemical properties, the carbon
nanotube is expected to be used for various applications including
high-resolution AFM probes, flat panel displays, extremely lightweight
and high-strength materials, high performance transistors, interconnect
materials, fuel cells, ultra-sensitive sensors, absorbents and
conductive coatings. "There are only a handful of companies in each part of the
country that provide the full service, covering the collection of used
oil, antifreeze, absorbents and oily water," says Schumacher. The toys' stuffing is virtually identical to absorbents used
to collect volatile chemicals for lab analysis, notes Caitlin Corbitt of
Chatham College in Pittsburgh. |
