Cover Feature: Functional Properties of Electrospun Polymer Mats Coated With SWCNTs by a Simultaneous Electrospraying Process
Abstract
Polymer mats are prepared by electrospinning and coated with a single-walled carbon nanotube dispersion by simultaneous electrospraying, creating a conductive nanotube network on and between fibres. The resulting mats act as p-type thermoelectric materials due to the properties of the nanotubes and also serve as highly sensitive acetone vapour sensors that exhibit pronounced resistance changes when exposed to vapour. More details can be found in the Research Article by Beate Krause and co-workers (DOI: 10.1002/mame.202500358).
