Carbon nanotubes have long been recognized as the stiffest and strongest man-made
material known to date. In addition, their high electrical conductivity has roused interest in …

An effective method for bonding carbon nanotubes (CNTs) onto carbon fibers (CFs) surface
via layer-by-layer (LBL) grafting method is reported here. The CNTs have been chemically …

We report that nanoscale carbon particles (carbon dots) upon simple surface passivation are
strongly photoluminescent in both solution and the solid state. The luminescence emission …

The unidirectional growth of materials to form nanowires or nanotubes has attracted
enormous interest in recent years. Within the different classes of tubes made of organic or …

Hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN), the isoelectric analogue of graphite, was functionalized
using lipophilic and hydrophilic amine molecules. The functionalization induced the …

Bioapplications of carbon nanotubes have been predicted and explored ever since the
discovery of these one-dimensional carbon allotropes. Indeed, carbon nanotubes have …

Through functionalization of carbon nanotubes, ie, the attachment of appropriate chemical
functionalities onto their conjugated sp 2 carbon scaffold, the prerequisites for faciliating the …

Electro‐active shape‐memory composites were synthesized using conducting polyurethane
(PU) composites and multi‐walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs). Surface modification of the …

Carbon nanotubes are emerging as innovative tools in nanobiotechnology. However, their
toxic effects on environment and health have become an issue of strong concern. In the …
