Concise route to functionalized carbon nanotubes

Article Abstract:

A concise route to functionalize carbon nanotubes via the esterification reaction of the carboxylate salt of carbon nanotubes and alkyl halides in the presence of a phase-transfer reagent in water is developed. The series of functionalized chemical functionalization of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) obtained are determined and analyzed by FT-IR, 1H NMR, TEM, and TGA techniques.

Actuator based on MWNT/PVA hydrogels

Article Abstract:

Simple hydrogelation with poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA) was used for the development of the first actuator based on multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWNT) hydrogels. The salts of carboxylic MWNTs exhibited excellent actuating properties through simple hydrogelation with PVA.

Facile route to synthesize multiwalled carbon nanotube/zinc sulfide heterostructures: Optical and electrical properties

Article Abstract:

A simple method to decorate that multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) with zinc sulfide nanospheres is developed. The method involves ultrasonic pretreatment and heat treatments of MWCNTs, zinc chloride, and thiourea in ethanol.
