Construction of nano-fishnet structure via oriented stretching and cross-linked interlocking

Caption

The chlorosulfonic acid solution disentangles and disperses the originally entangled carbon nanotube (CNT) bundles. Upon directional mechanical stretching, the CNTs align along the direction of stretching. Meanwhile, p‑phenylene benzobisoxazole nanofibers form bridging structures between adjacent CNT bundles, construct connection nodes, and thereby form the nano-fishnet structure.
