Abstract: Carbon nanotube constructs can include a plurality of first regions including a first plurality of carbon nanotube bundles that are aligned substantially in parallel; a plurality of second regions including a second plurality of carbon nanotube bundles that extend from the plurality of first regions and are non-aligned with the first plurality of carbon nanotube bundles in the plurality of first regions; and an interpenetration region between the plurality of first regions in which the second plurality of carbon nanotubes within second regions extending from one or more adjacent first regions interpenetrate one another. Methods can include providing a plurality of carbon nanotube bundles; and converting the plurality of carbon nanotube bundles into a carbon nanotube construct by applying at least one of stretching force, compression, or elastocapillary coalescence.
