Grafting of alkoxyamine end-capped (co)polymers onto multi-walled carbon nanotubes
نویسندگان
چکیده
Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) have been successfully modified by polystyrene, poly( caprolactone), and their block copolymers by addition reaction of the alkoxyamine-terminated precursors. Polymer-modified MWNTs are easily dispersed in good solvents for the grafted polymer, such as toluene and THF. This observation has been confirmed by TEM analysis. The grafting ratio of polystyrene chains at the surface of MWNTs depends on the polymer molecular weight.

Linkage of doxycycline onto functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotube and morphological characterization
In this paper functionalized multiwall carbon nanotubes (FMWCNT) were modified using doxycycline, containing reactable nitrogen, which can attach chemically to functionalized MWCNT. The synthesized nano compounds were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and Raman spectroscopy. These spectrums proved the existence of nitrogen atoms of amide functional groups. The mor...

In this study adsorption of 1-chloro-4-nitrobenzene (CNB) from aqueous solutions onto multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) was surveyed. The effect of some key parameters such as pH (2-10), carbon nanotubes dosage (0.02-0.1 mg/250mL), CNB concentration (2- 16 mg/L), and temperature (20,30,40,50°C) were investigated. The results showed that, the variation of initial pH and CNB concentration ex...
