Aircraft tires, car tires: By adding single-wall carbon nanotubes and rubber composite, the super-strong mechanical properties of single-wall carbon nanotubes can improve the wear resistance of tires, so that the production of aviation tires has anti-static, high load, impact resistance, low heat generation, high wear resistance and other functions, so that the static charge generated by tires during takeoff and landing can be evenly transferred to the ground, which can improve the service life of aircraft tires. It also saves manufacturing costs. Adding less than 0.05% of single-wall carbon nanotubes is enough to improve the mechanical properties and electrical conductivity of the tire. The wet grip is more than 15% higher than the existing similar tires, and the weight of the tire can be significantly reduced, while improving the flexibility and elasticity of the rubber tire and achieving conductive or antistatic performance, improving the mechanical properties of the tire such as energy efficiency, stiffness and wear resistance, improving hardness, wear resistance, heat resistance and extending the service life.
Flame retardant material: Single-wall carbon nanotubes can improve the flame retardant performance of aircraft synthetic leather, single-wall carbon nanotubes can be evenly distributed in the flame retardant material, and firmly "grasp" the surface of the material in contact with it, while making full use of the rapid heat dissipation ability of single-wall carbon nanotubes, even in extreme high temperatures, the carbon nanotubes in the coating are completely scorched, this scorched layer also has a stable flame retardant structure. It creates a carbon shield that keeps the flame from spreading. The ultra-high electrical conductivity and ultra-light characteristics of single-wall carbon nanotubes can improve the anti-static performance of synthetic aircraft leather, reduce the weight of synthetic leather, reduce fuel consumption, and reduce the cost of airlines.
Pressure vessels: Oxygen masks and cylinders: Single-walled carbon nanotubes are ideal for use as oxygen masks and cylinders in aircraft. Their low density makes the cylinders lighter, and their high mechanical properties make it possible to protect the escape system from damage in the event of an impact.
Esd gloves: The unique ability of single-walled carbon nanotubes to form a conductive network in latex, coupled with the high conductivity, strength and flexibility of single-walled carbon nanotubes, can maintain or improve their mechanical properties, increase durability and retain color, and can effectively resist static electricity, which gives gloves permanent, anti-static properties that are not affected by humidity. It can effectively protect the final product from the danger of electrostatic dissipation.
Space clothing: Carbon nanotubes have good electrical conductivity, can effectively eliminate static electricity, to meet the special environment for antistatic requirements. In addition, carbon nanotubes have the characteristics of high length-to-diameter ratio, higher flexibility, stronger water resistance and lighter weight. It can improve durability and preserve color while maintaining or improving the mechanical properties of clothing.
Reinforced plastic: carbon nanotubes with its unique mechanical properties, improve the performance of traditional carbon fiber matrix composite materials, while high specific strength, high modulus, can reduce the weight of equipment components, improve the stiffness of equipment components, make full use of the characteristics of carbon nanotubes composite materials, make it harder, lighter weight, so as to expand the application of composite materials.
