Fabrication of Carbon Nanotube/SiO2and Carbon Nanotube/SiO2/Ag Nanoparticles Hybrids by Using Plasma Treatment
نویسندگان
چکیده
Based on plasma-treated single wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs), SWCNT/SiO(2) and thiol groups-functionalized SWCNT/SiO(2) hybrids have been fabricated through a sol-gel process. By means of thiol groups, Ag nanoparticles have been in situ synthesized and bonded onto the SiO(2) shell of SWCNT/SiO(2) in the absence of external reducing agent, resulting in the stable carbon nanotube/SiO(2)/Ag nanoparticles hybrids. This strategy provides a facile, low-cost, and green methodology for the creation of carbon nanotube/inorganic oxides-metal nanoparticles hybrids.

Synthesis and Characterization of SiO2-Carbon Nanotube Hybrides Using a Sol-Gel Method
This work is focused on synthesis of SiO2- CNT hybrides via sol-gel method. Homogeneous distribution of carbon nanotubes within silicon matrix was obtained by mixing the functionalized carbon nanotube (CNTCOOH) with active silicic acid followed by titration to the solution of sodium silicate (Na2SiO3) under the average temperature condition of 80?C. Different ratios of multi-walled carbon nanot...
متن کاملControllable synthesis of silver nanoparticle-decorated reduced graphene oxide hybrids for ammonia detection.
We demonstrate controllable fabrication of Ag nanoparticle (NP)-decorated reduced graphene oxide (RGO/Ag) hybrids and their application for fast and selective detection of ammonia at room temperature. Ag NPs greatly improved the sensitivity of RGO. The response time (6 s) and recovery time (10 s) are comparable with our previous Ag NP-decorated multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT/Ag) NH3 sensors...
