Surface Functionalization of Multiwalled Carbon Nanotube with Trifluorophenyl

A new approach to dispersion of multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWNT) in common polar solvents was reported. Here, a detailed study of nanotube chemistry by using trifluorophenyl (TFP) to modify the surface of MWNT was discussed, which was not reported before. A characterization of the reaction product...
