Publication number: 20130087277Abstract: A method for bonding conductive materials by using composite adhesive made of carbon nanotubes and epoxy resin. Firstly, this composite adhesive is placed between the joining surfaces of the two conductive plates; thereafter an electric current enters from one conductive plate and passes through this composite adhesive, to the other conductive plate. As the electric current passes through the carbon nanotubes, Joule heating results in the overall temperature of the carbon nanotubes-epoxy composite adhesive increasing, leading to speedily joining and patching of the composite adhesive. This method reduces the electrical resistance of the adhesive material by providing a large area and shortening the path of the electric current, also, improving the homogeneity of the temperature of the adhesive and avoiding the positive feedback effect. The simple equipment of this method is not affected by the environment, and effectively reduces the resources and time needed to harden the epoxy resin.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 6, 2012Publication date: April 11, 2013Inventors: Shih-Chin Chang, Ping-Cheng Sung

Publication number: 20130087941Abstract: A kind of production method for carbon nanotube sponges which can control different hole sizes and densities, having uniform cell sizes. The formed carbon nanotube sponge has a soft, flexible and multi-holed structure. The carbon nanotubes pass through a hydrophilic acid process, mixing with different ratios of polymer materials PVA and are dispersed in the solvent. This mixed liquid is frozen under different controlled solidifying rates, forming different sized solid ice crystals having controllable particle sizes, and is vacuumized in the next step, which removes the frozen solvent through low pressure sublimation, the remains being the multi-holed carbon nanotube sponge structure. The size of the cells of the carbon nanotube sponge structure can be controlled through the freezing rate and the addition of polymers. The strength and stiffness can be controlled through the density of the carbon nanotubes and the addition of polymers.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 5, 2012Publication date: April 11, 2013Inventors: Shih-Chin Chang, Ping-Cheng Sung
