TL;DR: In this article, a novel chemical functionalization method for multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs), through an oxidation and silanization process, is presented, which allows us to have different organo-functional groups attached to the MWNTs, which improves their chemical compatibility with specific polymers for producing new nanotube-based composites.
Abstract: A novel chemical functionalization method for multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs), through an oxidation and silanization process, is presented. The method allows us to have different organo-functional groups attached to the MWNTs, which improves their chemical compatibility with specific polymers for producing new nanotube-based composites. The corresponding moieties were characterized by infrared, Raman and energy dispersion spectroscopies.
