Orbaek White, A., Hedayati, A., Yick, T., Shenoy Gangoli, V., Niu, Y., Lethbridge, S., …E. Palmer, R. (2022). On the Use of Carbon Cables from Plastic Solvent Combinations of Polystyrene and Toluene in Carbon Nanotube Synthesis. Nanomaterials, 12(1), Article 9. https://doi.org/10.3390/nano12010009

For every three people on the planet, there are approximately two Tonnes (Te) of plastic waste. We show that carbon recovery from polystyrene (PS) plastic is enhanced by the coaddition of solvents to grow carbon nanotubes (CNTs) by liquid injection c...
