Abstract

The present work aimed to prepare and characterize carbon nanotube (CNT) buckypapers (BPs) and to provide a perspective on possible applications in the optical device industry and power generation through triboelectric nanogenerators. The CNTs were dispersed in aqueous solution with the aid of a dispersing agent and then vacuum filtered. The prepared buckypaper has low average optical reflectance and shows an improvement in electrical conductivity and power generation when silver nanowires were added. This material includes new horizons and future applications for carbon nanotube buckypapers,including aerospace applications.
