Elastic modulus of halloysite nanotubes [PDF]
This work reports measurements of the elastic modulus of halloysite nanotubes. Nanoscale three-point bending tests were performed on individual nanotubes using an atomic force microscope. Nanotubes exhibit elastic behaviour at small deformations. The stiffness of the tubes, and hence their elastic modulus, was deduced from force curve measurements ...

Halloysite Nanotube Coatings Suppress Leukocyte Spreading [PDF]
The nanoscale topography of adhesive surfaces is known to be an important factor governing cellular behavior. Previous work has shown that surface coatings composed of halloysite nanotubes enhance the adhesion, and therefore capture of, rare target cells such as circulating tumor cells.

Cytocompatibility and Uptake of Halloysite Clay Nanotubes [PDF]
Halloysite is aluminosilicate clay with hollow tubular structure of 50 nm external diameter and 15 nm diameter lumen. Halloysite biocompatibility study is important for its potential applications in polymer composites, bone implants, controlled drug delivery, and for protective coating (e.g., anticorrosion or antimolding).

Halloysite nanotubes and halloysite-based composites for biomedical applications
Abstract Novel biomaterials for diagnostics and therapeutics of biomedical issues have been considered using biomedical science and health care. Halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) are naturally occurring aluminosilicate clay. Because of their unique hollow tubular structure, biodegradability, mechanical and surface properties, they have drawn the attention ...
