To overcome the flammability of epoxy resins, novel nitrogen (CNx) and oxygen (COx) doped CNT were synthesized via CVD method and epoxy nanocomposites at 2 wt.%. constant loading were prepared by three roll milling and cured. The structures of the nanotubes were confirmed by XRD, XPS, SEM and Raman and it was found a very high aspect ratio especially for COx.Thermal degradation as well as glass transition...
An efficient method for anchoring silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs) on the surface of nitrogen-doped multi-walled carbon nanotubes (CN x -MWCNTs) is reported. The process involves the attachment of biotin molecules on the surface of CN x -MWCNTs (both, pristine and acid treated) that act as a reducing agent for AgNO 3 , thus generating an efficient and homogeneous coating of Ag-NPs...
In this work, we report the synthesis of a hybrid material, consisting of Cu nanoparticles (Cu-NPs) anchored on the surface of carbon nanotubes (CNTs), which is able to increase the catalytic behavior when compared to bare CuNPs. This enhanced activity was evaluated by the electrophoretic separation of three carbohydrates: sucrose, glucose and fructose. CNTs were first synthesized in the presence...
