AbstractSingle-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) and multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) were functionalized with 3,4-diaminobenzoic acid via “direct” Friedel-Crafts acylation reaction in PPA/P2O5 to afford ortho-diamino-functionalized SWCNT (DIF-SWCNT) and MWCNT (DIF-MWCNT). The resultant DIF-SWCNT and DIF-MWCNT showed improved solubility and dispersibility. To improve interfacial adhesion between CNT and polymer matrix, the grafting of ABPBI onto the surface of DIF-SWCNT (10 wt%) or DIF-MWCNT (10 wt%) was conducted by simple in-situ polymerization of AB monomer, 3,4-diaminobenzoic acid dihydrochloride, in PPA. The resultant ABPBI-g-MWCNT and ABPBI-g-SWCNT showed improved the mechanical and electrical properties.

Abstract Synthesizing hyperbranched polyurethanes in a one step process using commercially available raw materials: these were the primary conditions for this work. By taking advantage of intramolecular reactivity differences of isocyanate groups in diisocyanates in combination with reactivity differences of OH and NH groups in alkanolamines, it is possible to generate in situ AB2 molecules by controlling reactions of specific functional groups towards each other. This AA* + B*B2 approach works without protecting groups and opens up a simple and versatile strategy towards hyperbranched aromatic as well as aliphatic polyureaurethanes. Preferential diisocyanates for this synthesis were 2,4-toluylene diisocyanate and isophorone diisocyanate, whereas diethanolamine and diisopropanolamine were used as isocyanate-reactive counterparts.

AbstractHigh-quality cobalt-filled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were prepared in situ in the decomposition of benzene over Co/silica-gel nano-scale catalysts. Unlike the previous reports, the catalysts needn't be pre-reduced prior to the forming of Co-filled CNTs, thus the advantage of this method is that Co-filled CNTs can be produced in one step, at a relatively low cost. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) investigation showed that the products contained abundance of CNTs and most of them were filled with metallic nanoparticles or nanorods. High-resolution TEM (HRTEM), selected area electron diffraction (SAED) patterns and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) confirmed the presence of Co inside the nanotubes. The encapsulated Co was further identified always as high temperature alpha-Co phase with fcc structure, which frequently consists of twinned boundaries and stacking faults. Based on the experimental results, a possible growth mechanism of the Co-filled CNTs was proposed.

ABSTRACTElectrochemical tuning of single-wall carbon nanotubes has been investigated using in situ Raman spectroscopy. We built a linear actuator from single-wall carbon nanotube mat and studied in several alkali metal (Li, Na, and K) and alkaline earth (Ca) halide solutions. The variation of bonding with electrochemical biasing was monitored using in situ Raman. This is since Raman can detect changes in C-C bond length: the radial breathing mode (RBM) at ∼190 cm−1 varies inversely with the nanotube diameter and the G band at ∼1590 cm−1 varies with the axial bond length. In addition, the intensities of both the modes vary significantly in a nonmonotonic manner pointing at the emptying/depleting or filling of the bonding and anti-bonding states - electrochemical charge injection. We discuss the variation of spectroscopic observables (intensity/frequency) of these modes providing valuable information on the charge transfer dynamics on the single-wall carbon nanotubes mat surface. We found the in-plane compressive strain (∼ -0.25%) and the charge transfer per carbon atom (fc ∼ -0.005) as an upper bound for the electrolytes used i.e. CaCl2. These results can be quantitatively understood in terms of the changes in the energy gaps between the one-dimensional van Hove singularities in the electron density of states arising possibly due to the alterations in the overlap integral of π bonds between the p orbitals of the adjacent carbon atoms. Moreover, the extent of variation of the absolute potential of the Fermi level or alternatively modification of band gap is estimated from modeling Raman intensity to be around 0.1 eV as an upper bound for CaCl2.

The size-dependent metal to nonmetal transition in metal nanoparticles has been investigated using photoelectron and tunneling spectroscopic techniques. Metal nanoparticles capped by thiols are shown to organize into ordered 2D and 3D structures. Single-walled nanotubes and aligned carbon nanotube bundles have been synthesized by controlling the size of metal nanoparticles produced in situ during the pyrolysis of precursors. Nanowires of gold and other metals have been produced in the capillaries of the single-walled nanotubes.
