Biocompatible Dispersants for Carbon Nanomaterials

Carbon nanomaterials (CNMs) are a fascinating class of materials that have gained considerable interest in recent years. Their favourable biocompatibility, combined with unique chemical and mechanical properties, has attracted scientists from various disciplines. A significant hurdle their deployment biomedical applications is hydrophobicity pristine form. This review surveys discusses existing non-covalent methods functionalising CNMs biocompatible dispersants to facilitate incorporation into aqueous solutions. Different types will be examined compared as well the factors affecting efficiency. work seeks provide compilation employed producing CNM dispersions.
