As we know, Apple failed the first experience with foldaway smartphones, . Seriously, the issue of truly flexible device at the present stage is impossible. To do this, there is no technical basis. And a problem with the materials.
One of these developments presented Finnish company Canatu. This developer has already noted touch panels based on carbon nanotubes for displays of mobile devices (part of the shares owned Canatu Japanese company profile SMK). New material NanoBud is a combination of carbon nanotubes and their close relatives - fullerenes. The term NanoBud - it nanobuds. In the process of synthesizing carbon nanotubes arise (bud) Numerous spherical formations that increase grip nanotubes with each other
and with virtually any surface.
Such material has all the unique properties of carbon nanotubes - high conductivity, high heat strength, and so on, and ability to stretch without damaging the structure of the nanotube (120%). The touch panel display, on the base of NanoBud can bend in an arbitrary place and return to the original position.
Another option NanoBud application developers see touchpads on anything. High adhesion NanoBud allow to give a touch sensitive buttons pseudo of any material. For example, these buttons can be equipped with electronics protected from moisture. The company is ready to present technical processes that will apply a layer of carbon nanopochek for more material in the casting process, including working with such inconvenient for additional coating polyethylene and polycarbonate.
