Abstract

Carbon nanostructures are interesting class of nanomaterials having wide range of applications. Special mention is due about carbon nanotube, fullerenes etc., though these materials suffer from a typical disadvantage related to their surface properties. Due to superior hydrophobic surface, these materials often suffer from their inability to get chemically modified. The same also may limit their applications to some extent. With the advent of chemical technology and further applications of these nanostructures, it is inevitable that the proper chemistry to modify the surface of carbonaceous nanomaterials should be extensively worked upon. This present chapter may throw some light in this direction and hopefully can cater to the needs of the students.
