The First International Workshop on Multi-functional Nanocarbon Fibres (27-29 June 2018) will gather leading researchers around the globe working on nanocarbons, with a view to developing the next generation of functional carbon fibres and fabrics and discussing future challenges. This workshop constitutes a satellite meeting of the Carbon 2018 Conference, which will be held in Madrid.
The topics covered by the workshop include experiment and/or theory research on CNT- and/or graphene-based fibres, with a particular interest in:
- Synthesis (CVD, wet-spinning, purification)
- Mechanical properties
- Transport properties
- Energy storage and harvesting (Solar, piezoelectric)
- Sensors and actuators
- Processes and Industrialisation
