Effect of carbon nanotube (CNT) functionalization in epoxy-CNT composites [PDF]

open access: yesNanotechnology Reviews, 2018
Abstract The effect of carbon nanotube (CNT) functionalization in altering the properties of epoxy-CNT composites is presented. The presence of functional groups effectively influenced the colloidal behavior of CNTs in the precursor epoxy resin and the hardener triethylenetetramine (TETA), which affected the synthesis process and ...

Carbon nanotubes: a review on green synthesis, growth mechanism and application as a membrane filter for fluoride remediation

open access: yesGreen Chemistry Letters and Reviews, 2021
In most African rural communities, ground water is the primary source of drinking water. Fluoride is a harmful substance found in ground water that causes serious health problems.

Nanomechanics of CNTs for sensor application [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Multi-Conference on Systems, Sygnals & Devices, 2012
A nanoscopic simulation for an acceleration sensor is aimed based on the piezoresistive effect of carbon nanotubes (CNTs). Therefore, a compact model is built from density functional theory (DFT), compared with results of molecular dynamics (MD) that describes the mechanics of carbon nanotubes in a parameterized way.

Polysulfone/ Carbon Nanotubes Asymmetric Nanocomposite Membranes: Effect of Nanotubes Surface Modification on Morphology and Water Permeability [PDF]

open access: yesIranian Journal of Chemical Engineering, 2015
Polysulfone/carbon nanotubes (PSF/CNTs) nanocomposite membrane was prepared via phase inversion induced by immersion precipitation technique. In addition, the surface of the CNTs were functionalized by polar carboxylic and amine groups to improve the ...

METAL-CNT CONTACTS

open access: yesExtended Abstracts of the 2014 International Conference on Solid State Devices and Materials, 2014
To realize carbon nanotube (CNT) as on-chip interconnect materials, the contact resistance stemming from the metal-CNT interface must be well understood and minimized. In this study, we compile existing published results and understanding for two metal-CNT contact geometries, sidewall or side contact and end contact, and address their key performance ...

Improvement of blood transfusion safety using the chemiluminescence technique for viral marker screening of blood donors in sub Saharan Africa

open access: yesHematology, Transfusion and Cell Therapy
Introduction: Sub-Saharan Africa struggles continuously with insufficient resources and inadequate infrastructure that hinder the establishment of a safer blood supply despite improvements in transfusion safety over recent decades.

A study concerning the pretreatment of CNTs and its influence on the performance of NIB/CNTs amorphous catalyst [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Serbian Chemical Society, 2006
As prepared carbon nanotubes were pretreated with nitric acid (CNTs-HNO3) or ammonia (CNTs-NH3). Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) measurements showed that the surface of the nanotubes was functionalized with carboxylic and hydroxyl ...

Enhancement of the Through‐Thickness Electrical Conductivity of Carbon‐Fiber‐Reinforced Plastics Using Large Graphite Particles

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
To enhance through‐thickness conductivity without sacrificing impregnation, large spherical graphite particles are intentionally employed in a low‐viscosity resin. Unlike finer conductive fillers, these particles remain outside the fiber bundles and accumulate in resin‐rich interlaminar regions during molding.
