Abstract: A new method for the characterization and express diagnostics of highly porous, loose, and other weakly bound media in bulk is described. This method is based on nanomechanical testing of milligram material specimens. A possibility of identifying ensembles of nanotube-containing carbon nanomaterials that have different morphologies and structures, as well as membranes that consist of polymer nanofibers, is demonstrated.
