Title: Layer-by-layer self-assembly of multiwalled carbon nanotube polyelectrolytes prepared by in situ radical polymerization. Author: Shen J, Hu Y, Qin C, Ye M. Journal: Langmuir; 2008 Apr 15; 24(8):3993-7. PubMed ID: 18341367. Abstract: Anionic and cationic multiwalled carbon nanotube polyelectrolytes, prepared by covalent modification of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) with poly(acrylic acid) and poly(acrylamide), were used for the layer-by-layer (LBL) self-assembly of MWCNTs on different substrates with polyelectrolytes, such as poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) and sodium poly(styrenesulfonate). Thermogravimetric analysis, Raman spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were used to demonstrate the modification of MWCNTs. Investigations using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy, SEM, and ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy proved this method to be practicable for preparing LBL films.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
