Covalent Functionalization of Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes for Materials Applications

Dyke, Christopher A., Tour, James M.·2004·The Journal of Physical Chemistry A

Abstract

Covalent functionalization of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) has significantly expanded the utility of the nanotube structure. Covalent sidewall functionalization has been employed to increase the solubility of these materials, which allows for the manipulation and processing of these otherwise insoluble nanotubes. Increased solubility leads to better dispersion in polymeric systems. Functionalization can be performed selectively wherein the metallic SWNTs react faster than the semiconductors. This has allowed a separation of carbon nanotubes by type. Covalent sidewall functionalization also allows nanotube-based composite formation where the functional group is well mixed with the polymer matrix. This has led to dramatic increases in the modulus of elastomers while retaining their elongation-at-break properties.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
