Abstract: There is disclosed a material for separating a liquid from a mixture of at least two liquids, for example, for separating water from fuel. In one embodiment, the material comprises a fibrous substrate and carbon nanotubes, both of which have at least one functional group attached thereto. There is also disclosed a method for separating one liquid from another liquid using the disclosed material. In one embodiment, the method comprises flowing a mixture of liquids through the disclosed material, and either coalescing or separating at least one liquid by use of the carbon nanotubes.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is an electrode comprising, a capacitive carbon material located on at least one surface of a thin. The capacitive carbon material typically comprises functionalized ultra-long carbon nanotubes and optionally another carbon allotrope or mixture of carbon allotropes with sufficiently high active surface area. . Methods of forming such electrodes are also disclosed.
