  • Publication number: 20240010498
    Abstract: The present disclosure describes methods of producing superhydrophobic carbon nanotube sheets. The methods disclosed herein allow the rapid and scalable production of superhydrophobic carbon nanotube sheets that may remain on a substrate, or they may be removed from the substrate to produce freestanding superhydrophobic carbon nanotube sheets. The carbon nanotube sheets produced by the present methods were confirmed to be superhydrophobic by water droplet contact angle.
