The purpose of the article is to discuss the process of oxidation of carbon nanotubes subsequently subjected to the process of decoration with rhenium nanoparticles. The influence of functionalization in an oxidizing medium is presented and the results of investigations using Raman spectroscopy and infrared spectroscopy are discussed. Multiwalled carbon nanotubes rhenium-type nanocomposites with the weight percentage of 10%, 20% and 30% of rhenium are also presented in the article. The structural components of such nanocomposites are carbon nanotubes decorated with rhenium nanoparticles. Microscopic examinations under transmission electron microscope and scanning transmission electron microscope using the bright and dark field confirm that nanocomposites containing about 20% of rhenium have the most homogenous structure.

New ex situ polyaniline (PANI)/ MnO2 -filled multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) nanocomposites using para-hydroxybenzene sulfonic acid (PHBSA) as a dopant and linker exhibit enhanced electrical conductivity and interfacial interaction. Strong and enhanced interfacial interaction was observed on the surfaces of the filled carbon nanotubes and PANI. Transmission electron microscope (TEM) demonstrated clearly the improved bonding at the interface compared to the nanocomposite without PHBSA.

In the presented work, the carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were successfully wrapped with alkli lignin. Both transmission electron microscope (TEM) and scanning electron microscope (SEM) observations show that the CNTs are coated with a layer of lignin, which is also verified by Raman spectra. SEM images demonstrate that lignin-wrapped CNTs (lignin-w-CNTs) can more uniformly dispersed in ABS matrix relative to pristine CNTs. Moreover, compared with CNTs and lignin, incorporating lignin-w-CNTs results in slightly higher tensile stress at the same loading level.
