CNT Yarn & Tape: Resistance Measurement
A demonstration of the methods & tools we typically use to measure the electrical resistance of our carbon nanotube yarns & tapes.
CNT tape EMI shield: blocking phone reception!
in Carbon Nanotubes Materials, CNT Film, EMI Shielding, Resources, VideosIn this video we use a quick and easy experiment to demonstrate that our 5 cm wide carbon nanotube tape is able to effectively block cell phone signals. We have wrapped Tyson’s phone in 2 layers of this tape, which effectively blocks incoming calls due to the tape’s excellent electromagnetic shielding properties.
Carbon Nanotube Tapes up to 5 cm wide!
in Carbon Nanotubes Materials, CNT Cables, CNT Film, EMI Shielding, eTextiles, Military, Resources, Videos, WearablesThis video demonstrates the array of carbon nanotube tapes that DexMat currently produces. Strong, conductive, and flexible tapes or films up to 5 cm wide are currently available and even wider tape formats are currently under development.
These tapes have tremendous potential in applications ranging from EMI shielding in cables/electronics, to thermal interface materials, to heating elements or conductive materials in clothing or e-textiles.
Making Carbon Nanotube Yarns
in Carbon Nanotubes Materials, CNT Rope, CNT Wires, CNT Yarn, eTextiles, Resources, Videos, WearablesThis video shows how carbon nanotube (CNT) fibers can be assembled into yarns or ropes by plying the fibers together with a planetary ropemaking machine. These yarns are lightweight and highly flexible. They are also more conductive than stainless steel thread and much stronger than copper wire.
