Carbon nanotube pellet. Carbon nanotubes are one atom thick sheets of graphite,called graphene,rolled into cylindrical form with a diameter of the order of a nanometre. Nanotubes can be arranged concentrically into multi-walled nanotubes (MWNTs). The MWNT pellets seen here have been manufactured to be added to thermoplastics,to change the electrical and thermal properties and increase mechanical strength of the final material.
