▎ 摘 要
NOVELTY - Method for preparing a carbanogel buckypaper product, involves (a) receiving a carbanogel by an electrolytic process for splitting of carbon dioxide within a molten electrolyte, where the carbanogel comprises carbon nanomaterials and an electrolyte, (b) positioning the carbanogel in a mold, and (c) compressing the carbanogel to form the product. USE - The method is used for preparing a carbanogel buckypaper product as a heating element, light-weight tooling application for high speed, safety, and quick changes, a tool for drilling, impact, and/or sawing, a tool for thermal management, a foldable material, a precursor to fibers and textiles, a storage packet for transport and delivery of carbon nanomaterials, for sequestrating carbon dioxide, as a sponge, pre-made laminate sheet for composites, a ballistic shield, an electromagnetic shield, a composite with high amount of carbon nanomaterials by infiltrating pores in a structure of the composite, a parachute, a drag enhancer, and to study bulk properties of carbon nanomaterials, as a portion of a structure and electrical energy storage, a portion of a structure and thermal energy storage, a portion of a structure and as an electrical conduit or wire, a portion of a structure and as strain or safety sensors to collect real time data on material performance, a portion of a structure and as a catalyst, a portion of a structure and/or as a thermal conduit, and as a heat dispersing member (all claimed). ADVANTAGE - The carbanogel buckypaper product is light in weight tooling application for high speed, safety, and quick changes, and has excellent thermal management. DETAILED DESCRIPTION - INDEPENDENT CLAIMS are included for the following: (1) (1) the carbanogel buckypaper comprising (a) carbon nanomaterials, and (b) an electrolyte; and (2) (2) a system comprising an apparatus for performing an electrolysis process which splits carbon dioxide within a molten electrolyte for producing a carbanogel, where the carbanogel comprises carbon nanomaterials and electrolyte, a mold, and a compression unit.
