Table 1 Data summarizing load vs. strain measurements of BHCNTs and control CNTs.
Material | Fail Loading at Room Temp | Fail Temp at 30 μN | Stiffness in comparison to CNT |
|---|---|---|---|
BHCNT-Outer Layer | 75 μN | 200 °C | 130% |
BHCNT-Inner Boron Wire | 100 μN | 400 °C | NA |
CNT | 30 μN | Room Temp | 100% |
CNT-COOH | 50 μN (30 nm depth pen.) | 200 °C | 110% |
