Solar heat absorbing coating from multi-walled carbon nanotube composites with linear low-density polyethylene-coated copper sheet
© SAGE Publications. This study aims to investigate the effects of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs)/linear low density polyethylene composite-coated copper sheets on an energy conversion efficiency of a solar water heating system. Volume percentages of 1, 3 and 5 MWNTs were ball-mill mixed with...
