Simple Wet Chemical Route for Decoration of Multi-walled Carbon Nanotubes with Nickel Nanoparticles

Controlled Decoration of Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes with Pd Nanocubes

nonenzymatic electrochemical detection of acetaminophen using well-distributed nickel nanoparticles on multi-walled carbon nanotubes

Laser-induced decoration of carbon nanotubes with metal nanoparticles

Hybrid nanomaterials consisting of multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) decorated with noble metal nanoparticles were produced by irradiating aqueous mixed solutions of the separate components with nanosecond lasers pulses at 248 nm. Specifically, the decoration with Au and Pd nanoparticles is discussed. No decoration of the MWCNT was observed by simple mixing with nanoparticle solutions. Hence, ...

CoFe2O4 nanoparticles grafted multi-walled carbon nanotubes coupled with surfactant-enhanced spectrofluorimetry for determination of ofloxacin in human plasma

An efficient and simple magnetic solid phase extraction based on the use of CoFe3O4 nanoparticles grafted multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) as adsorbent coupled with surfactant enhanced spectrofluorimetric detection...

Epoxidation of Carbon Nanocapsules: Decoration of Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes Filled with Metal Halides

Methyl(trifluoromethyl)dioxirane (TFDO) can be used for the oxyfunctionalization of SWCNTs filled with NaI and LuCl₃ under mild conditions. The chosen metal halides are of interest for theranostics, both for imaging and therapy when in their radioactive form. The applied functionalization methodology does not require metal catalyst, preserves the integrity of the nanotubes during treatment, avo...
