چکیده
Reduction of carbon nanohorn (CNH) aggregates with potassium naphthalenide resulted in their dismantling and individualization. Furthermore, the reduced CNHs were functionalized via addition of electrophiles.

Microwave-assisted functionalization of carbon nanohorns via [2+1] nitrenes cycloaddition.
The microwave-assisted functionalization of carbon nanohorns (CNHs) via [2+1] nitrenes cycloaddition, providing well dispersible hybrid materials possessing aziridino-rings covalently grafted onto the graphitic network of CNHs, was accomplished, while condensation of hydroxy-functionalized CNHs with thioctic acid, furnishing an endocyclic disulfide bond extended from the aziridino-rings, allowe...
متن کاملScattering and absorption properties of carbon nanohorn-based nanofluids for solar energy applications
In this work we investigated the scattering and absorption properties of nanofluids consisting in aqueous suspensions of single wall carbon nanohorns. The characteristics of these nanofluids were evaluated in order to use them as direct sunlight absorber fluids in solar devices. The investigation was carried our for nanohorns of different morphologies and for suspensions prepared with different...
متن کاملBenzyne cycloaddition onto carbon nanohorns.
A facile approach for the covalent functionalization of carbon nanohorns (CNHs) based on the benzyne cycloaddition reaction is presented. The benzynes were in situ generated from either anthranilic acid by decomposition of the internal benzenediazonium-2-carboxylate or from 2-(trimethylsilyl)-phenyl triflate by fluoride ion attack at the silicon atom followed by displacement of the trimethylsil...
متن کاملCarbon nanohorns-based nanofluids as direct sunlight absorbers.
The optimization of the poor heat transfer characteristics of fluids conventionally employed in solar devices are at present one of the main topics for system efficiency and compactness. In the present work we investigated the optical and thermal properties of nanofluids consisting in aqueous suspensions of single wall carbon nanohorns. The characteristics of these nanofluids were evaluated in ...
متن کاملRadiolabeling, whole-body single photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography imaging, and pharmacokinetics of carbon nanohorns in mice
In this work, we report that the biodistribution and excretion of carbon nanohorns (CNHs) in mice are dependent on their size and functionalization. Small-sized CNHs (30-50 nm; S-CNHs) and large-sized CNHs (80-100 nm; L-CNHs) were chemically functionalized and radiolabeled with [(111)In]-diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid and intravenously injected into mice. Their tissue distribution profiles ...
