A novel rod-like, dual-shell structural adsorbent of polypyrrole/cobalt ferrite/multiwalled carbon nanotubes (PPy/CoFe2O4/MWCNTs) was successfully synthesized by a hydrothermal method, which could easily separate uranium(vi) ions with an external magnetic field.

Conductive polymer nanocomposites (CPNCs) have gained a lot of attention by the researchers, in recent times, due to their diverse technological applications in different domains. This paper discusses the additive manufacturing of conductive polymer nanocomposite. Maghemite-Multiwalled carbon nanotubes were synthesized, and later dispersed in an acrylate resin, followed by curing with UV DLP 3D printer, under the presence of external magnetic field. Maghemite-Multiwalled carbon nanotubes showed superior magnetic properties, when compared to Multiwalled carbon nanotubes and lead to improvements in preferential alignment of filler material in the polymer matrix. The initial experimental results show preferential alignment of Maghemite-Multiwalled carbon nanotubes in the polymer matrix under the influence of external uniform magnetic field, at an intensity of 120 Gauss.

In this study, non-irradiated and weathered multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) obtained through irradiation, were studied as adsorbents for BPA, both nanomaterials being characterized before and after the adsorption process. The objectives of our investigation were to compare the characteristics of non-irradiated and irradiated MWCNTs, to evaluate the adsorption capacity of BPA by pristine and irradiated MWCNTs and to determine the variation of the kinetic, sorption and thermodynamic parameters during sorption process using both sorbents.
