Multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs)/nylon-6 (PA6) nanocomposites with different MWNTs loadings have been prepared by the simple melt-compounding approach. A fine and homogeneous dispersion of throughout PA6 matrix is observed transmission electron microscopy. Scanning microscopy observation on fracture surfaces composites shows not only a uniform but also strong interfacial adhesion matrix, as evidenced presence many broken strongly embedded (CNTs) in absence debonding CNTs from matrix....

Biopolymer chitosan/multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) nanocomposites have been successfully prepared by a simple solution-evaporation method. The morphology and mechanical properties of the chitosan/MWNTs characterized with field emission scanning electron microscopy (SEM), bright transmission (TEM), optical (OM), wide-angle X-ray diffraction (XRD), tensile as well nanoindentation tests. MWNTs were observed to be homogeneously dispersed throughout chitosan matrix. When compared neat...

DNA hits the wall: is immobilized securely onto surface of multiwalled carbon nanotubes through electrostatic interactions with grafted polyethylenimine (PEI; see picture). The polyethylenimine-graft carrying show transfection efficiency for delivery similar to or even several times higher than PEI.

Self-assembled three-dimensional BiOI microspheres composed of nanoplatelets were synthesized at low temperature using ethanol–water mixed solvent as reaction media and NH3·H2O pH adjustment. The as-prepared was characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission UV-vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, nitrogen sorption. possible formation mechanism for the architectures discussed. It found that alkali play key roles in microspheres. photocatalytic activity sample...

Spherical Bi(2)MoO(6) nanoarchitectures with scale of 500 nm-2 μm were prepared by a solvothermal reaction using bismuth nitrate and ammonium molybdate as precursors. Ag(3)PO(4) nanoparticles then deposited onto the surface Bi(2)MoO(6)via facile deposition-precipitation technique. The photocatalytic tests display that Ag(3)PO(4)/Bi(2)MoO(6) nanocomposites possess much higher rate for degradation rhodamine B methylene blue than pure under visible light. catalytic activity composite...

A novel type of ruthenium oxide (RuO(2))-modified multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWNT) nanocomposite electrode (RuO(2)/MWNT) for supercapacitors has been prepared. The nanocomposites were formed by depositing Ru magnetic-sputtering in an Ar/O(2) atmosphere onto MWNTs, which synthesized on Ta plates chemical vapor deposition. Cyclic voltammetry, chronopotentiometry, and electrochemical impedance measurements applied to investigate the performance RuO(2)/MWNT electrodes. capacitance MWNT...

A Pt–Pb alloy nanoparticle/multi-walled carbon nanotube (Pt–Pb/MWCNT) nanocomposite was prepared by electrodepositing onto MWCNTs that were vertically aligned on Ta plates. The 10–40 nm diameter nanoparticles mainly deposited at the tips, and sparsely dispersed sidewalls of bamboo-like MWCNTs, as demonstrated scanning electron microscopy, transmission microscopy (TEM), x-ray diffraction. high resolution TEM (HRTEM) image showed a snowflake-like morphology for nanoparticles. This Pt–Pb/MWCNT...
