Micro- and nanocubes of carbon have been synthesized by laser ablation in liquid. The morphology and structure analyses indicated that these micro- and nanocubes are single crystals with a body-centered cubic structure with a lattice constant of 5.46 angstroms, which is so-called C 8-like structure, and they have a slightly truncated shape bounded mainly by (200) facets. A blue-purple luminesce...

Graphene, as a novel carbon nanomaterial, exhibits superior performance in electrochemical sensors. Here, graphene was applied to the microelectrode system by a simple method. A novel graphene coating carbon fiber microelectrode (G-CFM) was fabricated by electrodepositing graphene on the surface of carbon fiber. The fabrication method is fast and simple. Scanning electron microscopy and Raman s...

in  this  work,  a  new  hybrid  organometallic-inorganic  hybrid nanomaterial was prepared by immobilization of acetyl ferrocene on the  surface  of magnetite  nanoparticles. covalent  grafting of silica coated magnetite nanoparticles (scmnps) with 3-aminopropyl triethoxysilane gave aminopropyl-modified magnetite nanoparticles (ampscmnps). then, schiff base condensation  of ampscmnps with acet...

Assembly of carbon nanomaterials into two-dimensional (2D) coatings and films that harness their unique physiochemical properties may lead to high impact energy capture/storage, sensors, and biomedical applications. For potential biomedical applications, the suitability of current techniques such as chemical vapor deposition, spray and dip coating, and vacuum filtration, employed to fabricate m...

Controlling crystal nucleation is a crucial step in obtaining high quality protein crystals for structure determination by X-ray crystallography. Carbon nanomaterials (CNMs) including carbon nanotubes, graphene oxide, and carbon black provide a range of surface topographies, porosities and length scales; functionalisation with two different approaches, gas phase radical grafting and liquid phas...

The glass-reinforced laminated composite is widely used in place of conventional structural materials. glass fiber composites demonstrate outstanding strength the uniaxial direction. effect carbon nanotube reinforcement percentage on flexural polymer investigated this article. final laminates has been found to improve by reinforcing Carbon nanotube. small incorporation MWCNT improves up 51.3%. ...

Chemical charging of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) and graphenes to generate soluble salts shows great promise as a processing route for electronic applications, but raises fundamental questions. The reduction potentials of highly-charged nanocarbon polyelectrolyte ions were investigated by considering their chemical reactivity towards metal salts/complexes in forming metal nanopartic...
