By exploiting the dispersibility and rigidity of boehmite nanofibers (BNFs) with a high aspect ratio of 4 nm in diameter and several micrometers in length, multiwall-carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were successfully dispersed in aqueous solutions. In these sols, the MWCNTs were dispersed at a ratio of about 5–8% relative to BNFs. Self-standing BNF–nanotube films were also obtained by filtering these dispersions and showing their functionality. These films can be expected to be applied to sensing materials.

In the present work, we demonstrated a facile process to prepare an open-ended high aspect-ratio TiO2 nanotube films through separating the anodic TNT array from the Ti substrate by a small reverse bias and opening the tube bottom by a chemical etching. The possible mechanisms of film detachment and pore opening processes have been briefly discussed. Such a process allows controlling the open-ended morphology by the straightforward chemical etching, which shows great potential in many applications, such as flow-through photocatalytic reactions, biofiltration, and diffusion controlling, and so on. An example using the open-ended TNT films is finally given as a flow-through photocatalytic reactor. The photocatalytic film has been shown to have multiple functions such as physical separation of contaminants, filtration, and decomposition of organic pollutants during diffusion.
