background: colors make many problems and these are major sources of environmental pollution. therefore, this wastewater should be treated before discharge to environment to reduce the environmental threats. adsorption is one of the usual processes for color removal from wastewater. nanotube s are new adsorbents with extend application for adsorption of different compounds. aim of this study wa...

[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-...

in this paper, we have used density functional perturbation theory (dfpt) and pseudo-potential method to calculate the phonon spectrum, phonon density of states (dos), specific heat capacity and mechanical properties of (5,5) armchair and (9,0) zigzag single wall carbon nanotubes (swcnts). our calculations show that young’s modulusfor (5,5) and (9,0) nanotubesare higher than 1tpa. we have also ...

Pt-Ru supported on carbon nanotubes (CNTs) (single-walled nanotubes, double-walled nanotubes (DWNTs), and multi-walled nanotubes) catalysts are prepared by an ethylene glycol reduction method. Pt-Ru nanoparticles with a diameter of 2-3 nm and narrow particle size distributions are uniformly deposited onto the CNTs. A simple and fast filtration method followed by a hot-press film transfer is emp...

Single walled carbon nanotube shows excellent chemical and physical properties and it has been extensively explored for novel applications. It has been shown that single walled carbon nanotube can be used to improve sensitivity of sensors such as bio sensors, gas sensors and mechanicals sensor by its unique properties. As a mechanical sensor, a mechanical force deforms the single walled carbon ...

In this work, we probed the effects of shear flow on the alignment of dispersed single-walled carbon nanotubes in polymer solutions. Two different systems were compared: Single-walled carbon nanotubes dispersed using an anionic surfactant and single-walled carbon nanotubes dispersed using an anionic surfactant and a weakly binding polymer. It was determined that the addition of the weakly bindi...
