Abstract

In order to develop flexible materials for use as supercapacitors, radiation absorbers and thermal control, it is intended to design molds for the production of buckypapers by filtration systems. The work also provides for the learning of techniques for dispersing nanotubes together with micrometric particles of activated carbon
