Fig. 2. Structural evolution of CNT fibers after annealing.

Fig. 2.

(A) 2D WAXS patterns of representative S·DWNT fibers. (B) Equatorial and (C) meridional radial profiles showing the transition from bundles to highly crystalline graphitic domains upon high-temperature annealing. (D) Plot of crystal sizes transversal (Lc) and parallel (La) to the fiber axis for CNT fibers as well as conventional graphitic CFs from different precursors (48). (E) Orientation parameters ⟨cos2(ϕ)⟩ calculated from the interlayer reflections (Eq. 1).
