A multiwall carbon nanotube composed of only two nested, concentric single-wall carbon nanotubes. 1, record 1, English, - double%2Dwalled%20carbon%20nanotube
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 OBS
Although this is a type of multiwall carbon nanotube, its properties are rather closer to those of single-wall carbon nanotubes. 1, record 1, English, - double%2Dwalled%20carbon%20nanotube
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 2 OBS
double-walled nanotube; double-wall nanotube; DWNT: These variants are used as synonyms, but one should keep in mind that nanotubes are not always carbon-based. If indeed speaking of carbon-based nanotubes, it would be preferable to include "carbon" in the term or the letter "C" in the abbreviation. 3, record 1, English, - double%2Dwalled%20carbon%20nanotube

Nanotube de carbone multiparoi composé de deux nanotubes de carbone simple paroi seulement, qui sont concentriques et enroulés l'un autour de l'autre. 2, record 1, French, - nanotube%20de%20carbone%20double%20paroi
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 OBS
Bien que ce soit un type de nanotube de carbone multiparoi, ses propriétés sont plus proches de celles de nanotubes de carbone simple paroi. 2, record 1, French, - nanotube%20de%20carbone%20double%20paroi
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 2 OBS
nanotube de carbone double-paroi : Les termes tels que «nanotube simple paroi», «nanotube double paroi» et «nanotube triple paroi» s'écrivent sans trait d'union entre «simple», «double» ou «triple» et «paroi». Au pluriel, on écrirait «nanotubes simple paroi», «nanotubes double paroi» et «nanotubes triple paroi» («simple paroi», «double paroi» et «triple paroi» demeurent invariables). Par contre, les adjectifs tels que «monoparoi», «monofeuillet», «biparoi», «bifeuillet», «multiparoi» et «multifeuillet» s'accordent en nombre avec le nom qu'ils qualifient. On écrirait donc «un nanotube biparoi» et «des nanotubes biparois». Ces adjectifs s'écrivent sans trait d'union. 1, record 1, French, - nanotube%20de%20carbone%20double%20paroi
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 3 OBS
nanotube double paroi; nanotube biparoi : Il est préférable de préciser que le nanotube est à base de carbone, car ce n'est pas toujours le cas. Ce serait donc mieux d'utiliser un terme tel que «nanotube de carbone double paroi». 1, record 1, French, - nanotube%20de%20carbone%20double%20paroi
