| Abstract Scope |
Nanoparticles have unique properties from their unique dimensions, aspect ratios, compositions, and surface chemistry. The first segment will explore the utilization of one-dimensional (1D) fibers with exceptional processing techniques to create nanoscale layers that confine nanoparticles like carbon nanotubes or graphene. By strategically incorporating nanocarbons into specific polymers such as polyacrylonitrile, enhanced polymer crystallization, and subsequent carbonization can be achieved, leading to the development of high-performance composites with valuable applications in defense sectors. The second demonstration will showcase the selective deposition of two-dimensional (2D) MXene for directed assembly. Through precise orientation and stacking of MXene, facilitated by efficient and scalable processing methods, anisotropic conductivity and sensing capabilities can be attained. Lastly, the discussion will focus on the immense potential of 3D printing in processing in-plane layers, offering versatility in applications such as structural supports, thermal dissipation, microelectronics, optical metasurface. |
