Double-walled carbon nanotubes suspending by natural active substances (saponins and humic acids)

Double-walled carbon nanotubes suspending by natural active substances (saponins and humic acids)

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) discovered over the past fifteen years are very interesting materials because of their structural, mechanical, chemical and electronic properties. However, their poor dispersion after synthesis constitutes a real obstacle to their use in varied fields. To respond to a topical...
