Carbon nanotubes can be used to produce electricity. Now scientists try to use them also as a fibre to make clothes. In combination it would be possible to develop clothing that is able to charge a mobile phone, for instance. The main problems are to produce carbon nanotubes in the big and to make sure that the fibre does not pose a health risk.
