Cientifica: New Nanotubes Research, Daily Nanotechnology Updates & Blog.Business Editors LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 17, 2004 Production capacity is catching up with demand from applications of nanotechnology's wonder material Cientifica today announces the availability of the 2004 Nanotubes Report and the NanoInscisor(TM) daily alert service. Covering over 100 companies worldwide, the 2004 Nanotubes Report highlights that global nanotube A carbon molecule that resembles a cylinder made out of chicken wire one to two nanometers in diameter by any number of millimeters in length. Accidentally discovered by a Japanese researcher at NEC in 1990 while making Buckyballs, they have potential use in many applications. and nanofiber capacity is already approaching 250 tons per year. Global single wall nanotube production capacity is currently running at 9 tons per year with the potential to increase to 20 tons by the year end, while capacity for multiwalled nanotubes is 32 tons per year. The report details both production processes and volumes, with the latest information about the companies and applications ranging from textiles to composite materials composite material or composite, any material made from at least two discrete substances, such as concrete. Many materials are produced as composites, such as the fiberglass-reinforced plastics used for automobile bodies and boat hulls, but the . Author, Dr. Cristina Roman commented "production capacity only tells half the story, the 2004 Nanotubes Report uniquely links nanotube production with the real market pull from the myriad Myriad is a classical Greek name for the number 104 = 10 000.
