One Pot Chemically Attachment of Amino Groups on Multi walled Carbon Nanotubes Surfaces
Functionalization of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) with NH2 groups under a one pot reaction is studied. During the first step of the reaction, Cl and CHCl2 groups were attached to the surfaces of MWCNTs through an electrophilic addition reaction. In the second step of process, Cl atoms were replaced with NH2 and amino groups (ethylene diamine and but...

متن کاملCarbon Nanotubes in Nanocomposites and Hybrids with Hydroxyapatite for Bone Replacements
Hydroxyapatite (HA), as a bone mineral component, has been an attractive bioceramic for the reconstruction of hard tissues. However, its poor mechanical properties, including low fracture toughness and tensile strength, have been a significant challenge to the application of HA for the replacement of load-bearing and/or large bone defects. Among materials studied to reinforce HA, carbon nanotub...
متن کاملPressure-Activated Microsyringe Composite Scaffold of Poly(L-lactic acid) and Carbon Nanotubes for Bone Tissue Engineering
Tissue engineering is an innovative interdisciplinary field in which bioengineers and life scientists try to regenerate and reproduce natural tissues through the use of biodegradable structures, called scaffolds, with the aim of mimicking the specific tissue extracellular matrix (ECM). Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) offer a natural platform for obtaining composite microfabricated scaffolds thanks to t...
