Abstract

New strategy for chemically attachment of Amide group on Multi-walled Carbon Nanotubes surfaces: synthesis, characterization and study of DC electrical conductivity

Highlights

  • IntroductionThe applications of nanotechnologies can cover materials manufacturing, nano-electronics and computer technology, medicine, health, aeronautics, space exploration, environment devices, information storage, biotechnology and polymer technology[1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15]

  • Poly[MWCNT/Amide] composites were prepared by reacting MWCNT-COOH with (EDA and OPDA) in a refluxing solvent (DMF) to give poly-composites products

  • The DC electrical conductivity value of poly[MWCNT/OPDA] that is higher than Poly[MWCNT/ethylene diamine (EDA)] may be due to the conjugation of the aromatic ring

Summary

Introduction

The applications of nanotechnologies can cover materials manufacturing, nano-electronics and computer technology, medicine, health, aeronautics, space exploration, environment devices, information storage, biotechnology and polymer technology[1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15]. The preparation of polymer nanocomposites filled with carbon nanotubes generally requires the nanotubes to be homogeneously dispersed and compatible with the polymer matrix[16]. The preparation of poly Amide-functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotube is highly relevant and useful for fabricating nanocomposites. Chen et al.,[17] treated oxidized nanotubes with long-chain alkyl
