Nanotube is a nanometer-scale tube
like structure that is available in different types such as carbon
nanotubes, silicon nanotubes, inorganic nanotubes, boron nitride
nanotubes, membrane nanotubes and DNA nanotubes. Nanotubes are sometimes
also referred to as buckytubes.
Nanotubes
may look like powder or black soot, but they are the rolled-up sheets
usually manufactured using graphene. Nanotubes generally form hollow
strands that are only one atom thick. Nanotubes were developed from
fullerene which is a structure that is similar to that of geodesic
domes. Nanotubes which are produced in the laboratories are generally
strong and exhibits electrical and thermal properties. Nanotubes can be
generally differentiated by the number concentric cylinders, cylindrical
length and cylindrical radius. Few nanotubes also exhibit various
properties such as chirality which is a general expression of twisting
longitudinally. Multiple nanotubes can also be assembled into
microscopic mechanical systems called as nanomachines.
Carbon nanotubes are one of the widely
used types of nanotubes. Nanotubes find a wide range of applications in
manufacturing solar cells, actuators, paper batteries, acoustics
environmental remediation and in several medical devices. However, the
usage of nanotubes is largest in manufacturing several electrical
devices such as circuits and batteries.
Developing technologies coupled with
increasing demand for high end electrical products is expected to boost
the overall growth of electrical industry. Thus, growing electrical
industry is expected to augment the overall demand of nanotubes market.
Nanotubes are also used in manufacturing a wide range of batteries such
as paper batteries, solar cells and hydrogen storage among others. The
growing applications of nanotubes in the medical devices are also
expected to drive the overall growth of the market. Nanotubes are also
used in the textile industries especially in fiber spinning to improve
the mechanical as well as physical properties of the textile material.

Nanotubes are similar to that of
direct dyes. Thus, the increasing applications of nanotubes in various
industries are expected to escalate the overall growth of the market.
High prices, environmental concerns coupled with several health risks
are expected to hamper the growth of this market.
