Electrochemical grafting of poly(glycidyl methacrylate) on a carbon-fibre surface

Preparation and optical properties of indium tin oxide/epoxy nanocomposites with polyglycidyl methacrylate grafted nanoparticles.

Visibly highly transparent indium tin oxide (ITO)/epoxy nanocomposites were prepared by dispersing polyglycidyl methacrylate (PGMA) grafted ITO nanoparticles into a commercial epoxy resin. The oleic acid stabilized, highly crystalline, and near monodisperse ITO nanoparticles were synthesized via a nonaqueous synthetic route with multigram batch quantities. An azido-phosphate ligand was synthesi...

Adsorption of Amlodipine at the Surface of Tosyl-Carbon Nanoparticles for Electrochemical Sensing

The adsorption processes of amlodipine onto hydrophilic carbon nanoparticles (Emperor 2000TM) are investigated. The significant increase in voltammetric responses for pre-adsorbed amlodipine compared with those for solution confirms high affinity of amlodipine to carbon nanoparticles (possibly due to π-π stacking interaction between aromatic rings of amlodipine and surface-sulfonated carbon nan...

Grafting of Polyaniline onto the Surface of 4-Aminobenzoyl- Functionalized Multiwalled Carbon Nanotube and Its Electrochemical Properties

Polyaniline (PANi)-grafted multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWNT) composite is prepared by a two-step reaction sequence. MWNT is first functionalized with 4-aminobenzoic acid in polyphosphoric acid/phosphorous pentoxide as a ‘‘direct’’ Friedel-Crafts acylation reaction medium. The resultant 4-aminobenzoyl-functionalized MWNT is then treated with aniline using ammonium persulfate/aqueous hydrochlori...
