Distinct Roles of Tensile and Compressive Stresses in Graphitizing and Properties of Carbon Nanofibers

It is generally accepted that inducing molecular alignment in a polymer precursor via mechanical stresses influences its graphitization during pyrolysis. However, our understanding of how variations of the imposed mechanics can influence pyrolytic carbon microstructure and functionality is inadequat...
