Surface modification of multiwall carbon nanotubes determines the pro-inflammatory outcome in macrophage.
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are widely used in industry and biomedicine. While several studies have focused on biological matters, attempts to systematically elucidate the toxicity mechanisms of CNTs are limited. The aim of the present study was to evaluate and compare the cytotoxicity of raw multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and MWCNTs functionalized with carboxylation (MWCNTs-COOH) or polyet...
متن کاملPolysulfone/ Carbon Nanotubes Asymmetric Nanocomposite Membranes: Effect of Nanotubes Surface Modification on Morphology and Water Permeability
Polysulfone/carbon nanotubes (PSF/CNTs) nanocomposite membrane was prepared via phase inversion induced by immersion precipitation technique. In addition, the surface of the CNTs were functionalized by polar carboxylic and amine groups to improve the interaction between the CNTs and the polymer matrix. For this purpose, the neat CNTs were chemically treated using sulfuric acid/ nitric acid (H2S...
متن کاملInverse Photoemission Spectroscopy of Multiwall Carbon Nanotubes
Multiwall Carbon Nanotubes (MWCNTs) were synthesized by Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD). Two different procedures were used to grow MWCNT films roughly, aligned in the direction normal to the SiO2/Si(111) substrate. Inverse Photoemission Spectroscopy measurements, on these samples, show the existence of resonances which could be traced back to a flat graphene sheet. The unoccupied valence band ...
متن کاملMultiwall carbon nanotubes as quantum dots.
We have measured the differential conductance of individual multiwall carbon nanotubes. Coulomb blockade and energy level quantization are observed. The electron levels are nearly fourfold degenerate (including spin) and their evolution in magnetic field (Zeeman splitting) agrees with a g factor of 2. In zero magnetic field the sequential filling of states evolves with spin S according to S = 0...
متن کاملEvaluating the characteristics of multiwall carbon nanotubes
During the past 20 years, multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) have become an important industrial material. Hundreds of tons are produced each year. This review is a survey of the scientific literature, motivated by industrial requirements and guidelines for environment, health and safety compliance. Sampling, size, area, density, color, crystallinity, as well as purity compared to properties o...
