Rice University scientists today unveiled a method for the industrial-scale processing of pure carbon-nanotube fibres that could lead to revolutionary advances in materials science, power distribution and nanoelectronics. The result of a nine-year program, the method builds upon tried-and-true processes that chemical firms have used for decades to produce plastics. The research is available online in the journal Nature Nanotechnology...
