Nanowires III: Bulk Production, Dispersions and Composites

Wednesday, November 19, 2008: 3:15 PM
Franklin 1 (Marriott Philadelphia Downtown)

Description:
This session will focus on various approaches (gas phase, wet chemical and electrochemical, etc) and processes that are being developed for making bulk quantities of nanowires and their subsequent scale-up studies. The session will also include papers dealing with dispersion studies of nanowires and their applications into composites, thin films and other applications.
