Carbon (C) Nanohorns, Single-Walled, Double Walled and Multi-Walled, are black nano scale cylindrical tubes of graphitic carbon which differ from nanotubes in their "horn-like" shape similar to a sewing thimble giving them numerous applications as both the stiffest and strongest known fibers and because of their unique shape gives them an enormous amount of surface area.

Application
Carbon nanohorns can behave like a conductive metallic or semiconductor depending on their structure, which is useful for nanoscale electronic devices and in electrically conductive films in coatings, plastics, nanowire, nanofiber and in certain bioscience applications. Carbon Nanohorns are generally immediately available in most volumes. Additional technical, research and safety (MSDS) information is available.
