the electrochemical oxidation and determination of tryptophan (trp) and glutathione (gsh) in the presence of catechol as a homogeneous redox in the aqueous medium were investigated at the surface of a carbon paste electrode modified with multi-walled carbon nanotube (mwcnt-cpe) using cyclic voltammetry (cv), double step potential chronoamperometry and differential pulse voltammetry (dpv) techni...

the electrochemistry of banana tissues on a carbon paste electrode modified with multi-walled carbon nanotubes (mwcnts) is presented. cyclic voltammetry is applied to investigate the direct electrochemistry of banana tissues i.e. a source of polyphenol oxidase (ppo). a redox couple with an anodic and counterpart cathodic peak is obtained. the influence of various parameters such as ph, scan rat...

The separation of two different types of multi-walled carbon nanotubes is studied in a dielectrophoresis-based microchannel system in seven different solvents as the suspending medium.  A simple model was developed to predict the behavior of the multi-walled carbon nanotubes in the above mentioned system. Then, the equations of motion for the multi-walled carbon nanotubes in that system were in...

adsorbed natural gas has various advantages and is relatively more economical than liquefaction and compression. carbon nanotubes can be introduced as a new candidate for natural gas storage. in this study, adsorption of methane was firstly studied on the as-prepared multi-walled carbon nanotubes, and then chemical and physical treatment of mwcnts was performed to enhance the methane adsorption...

in this paper, the chemical functionalization of carboxylate multi-walled carbon nanotubes by methyl (triphenyl phosphoranylidene) acetate have been investigated. phosphorus ylides are important compound in organic chemistry. at first, methyl (triphenyl phosphoranylidene) acetate, synthesized from salt metod in two steps: the formation of the phosphonium salt and the deprotonation of the latter...

[if gte mso 9]> In the present work, the thermal conductivity coefficients of nanoparticle-oil suspensions for two types of carbon nanotubes, single-walled (SWNTs) and multi-walled (MWNTs) carbon nanotubes at 0.1, 0.2 and 0.3 wt.% were measured by a modified transient hot wire method (KD2-pro thermal property meter). Results showed that the thermal conductivity of suspension containing single-...

palladium nanoparticles supported on multi-walled carbon nanotubes (pd/mwcnts) have been synthesized using a modified polyol reduction method and its performance in methanol oxidation reactions has evaluated. the morphology of palladium on mwcnts was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (sem) and transmission electron microscopy (tem). the catalytic performance of synthesized catalyst ...

background and purpose: textile effluents are very difficult to treat satisfactorily due to high variations in their compositions. strong color is one of the main characteristics of textile effluent and, if not eliminated, it can cause serious problems to the environment. in the present study, multi-walled carbon nanotubes (mwcnts) were used as an adsorbent for the removal of reactive red-120 (...
