    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joint_Service_Lightweight...

    Joint Firefighter Integrated Response Ensemble (J-FIRE) is a military protective suit used for firefighting in the CBRN and WMD environment. [3] J-FIRE utilizes the JSLIST and an aluminized firefighting proximity suit. The J-FIRE is designed to resist water and standard firefighting chemicals, while still providing CBRN protection to the user.

    Medical researcher wearing a Chemturion suit. The Chemturion is a multi-use, positive pressure totally encapsulating protective suit, manufactured by ILC Dover.It is currently used by Public Health Canada, Boston University, USAMRIID and AI Signal Research, the Center for Disease Control in Atlanta, and many industrial companies such as DuPont, Dow, and Georgia Pacific.

  6. Potential applications of carbon nanotubes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potential_applications_of...

    Carbon nanotube structured heaters show promise in replacing autoclaves and conventional ovens for composite curing because of their ability to reach high temperatures at fast ramping rates with high electrical efficiency and mechanical flexibility. These nanostructured heaters can take the form of a film and be applied directly to the composite.

  7. Carbon nanotube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_nanotube

    This nanotube was grown inside a multi-walled carbon nanotube. Assigning of the carbon nanotube type was done by a combination of high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), Raman spectroscopy, and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. [19] The thinnest freestanding single-walled carbon nanotube is about 0.43 nm in ...

  8. NBC suit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NBC_suit

    Smock of British military NBC suit in Disruptive Pattern Material. Overboots to be worn over combat boots. NBC stands for nuclear, biological, and chemical. [1] It is a term used in the armed forces and in health and safety, mostly in the context of weapons of mass destruction (WMD) clean-up in overseas conflict or protection of emergency services during the response to terrorism, though there ...

  9. Optical properties of carbon nanotubes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_properties_of...

    A single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) can be envisioned as strip of a graphene molecule (a single sheet of graphite) rolled and joined into a seamless cylinder.The structure of the nanotube can be characterized by the width of this hypothetical strip (that is, the circumference c or diameter d of the tube) and the angle α of the strip relative to the main symmetry axes of the hexagonal ...
