been successfully introduced for functionalization of carbon nanotubes (CNT) via aliphatic
and aromatic carboxylic acids. This green and efficient route may play an essential role for
realizing miscellaneous functionalizations of CNT, which were successfully functionalized
via ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) and diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA).
Qualitative (FT-IR) and quantitative (TGA, Raman, XPS) characterization has been …
