As described on page 7174, R. Yuge and co‐workers succeeded in preparing novel nanocarbons. These fibrous aggregates composed of radially‐assembled graphene‐based single‐walled nanotubules, described as fibrous aggregates of single‐walled carbon nanohorns, have high dispersibility in solution, large specific surface areas, and high electrical conductivity, being suitable for high performance devices such as batteries, capacitors, fuel cells, and actuators.
