The physical properties of carbon electrodes are deterrnined by the raw materials and processes used in their manufacturer. There are no universal grade designations and the pubHshed properties are quite broad. Table 3 shows ranges for some of the common commercially available grades.

The physical properties of carbon tetrachloride are Hsted in Tables 1 and 2. 

The diameter distribution of single-wall carbon nanotubes is of great interest for both theoretical and experimental reasons, since theoretical studies indicate that the physical properties of carbon nanotubes are strongly dependent on the nanotube diameter. Early results for the diameter distribution of Fe-catalyzed single-wall nanotubes (Fig. 15) show a diameter range between 0.7 nm and 1.6 nm, with the largest peak in the distribution at 1.05 nm, and with a smaller peak at 0.85 nm [154]. The smallest reported diameter for a single-wall carbon nanotube is 0.7 nm [154], the same as the diameter of the Ceo molecule (0.71 nm) [162].

Physical properties of carbon black-filled EPR and EPDM elastomers have been found to be comparable with the suUur-cured analogues [372]. Aromatic oils increase the optimum dose requirement for these compounds due to the reaction of the transient intermediates formed during radiolysis of the polymer with the oil as well as energy transfer which is particularly effective when the oil contains aromatic groups. The performance and oxidative stability of unfilled EPDM as well as its blend with PE [373], and the thermal stabdity and radiation-initiated oxidation of EPR compounds are reported by a number of workers [374,375].

This customized function also circumvents the intractability problem pertinent to (19). Unlike the area function discussed previously to relate the physical properties of carbon black to the overall viscoelastic properties of the composite [229], the function introduced here is unique because it is a dimensionless quantity. Thus, it represents the property better and is devoid of any significant bias arising out of the differences in magnitudes of the constituting components.

A. 0. Rankine found that the mols. of nitrous oxide and carbon dioxide behave physically as if they had the same size, shape, and electronic structure. I. Langmuir compared the physical properties of carbon dioxide and of nitrous oxide, and the similarity was attributed to a like electronic structure—vide 4. 27, 4, Fig. 30. G. Kirsch made observations on the electronic structure of the molecule and M. L. Huggins made estimates of the interatomic distances.

Make a list of the physical properties of carbon and sulfur powder. The following discussion will aid you in making your list. 

The first carbon nanotubes discovered in nature, such as those produced in Iijima s experiments, were multiwalled nanotuhes (MWNT). Multiwalled nanotuhes consist of a number of concentric carbon cylinders, a set of tubes nested inside each other. They are somewhat complex systems that are relatively difficult to study. An important step forward in research on carbon nanotuhes occurred in 1993, when scientists learned how to make single-walled nanotubes (SWNT). Using the simpler SWNTs, scientists have learned quite rapidly a great deal about the electrical conductivity, tensile strength, flexibility, toughness, and other physical properties of carbon nanotuhes.

Finally, the determination of both microtexture and graphitization degree is useful to explain, and even to predict, the physical properties of carbons (32).
