New responsive surfactants for aqueous dispersion of CNTs and graphene

We have developed a flexible approach to the synthesis of surfactants with an ‘Anchor Linker-Head’ (ALH) architecture. These ALH surfactants are designed for the dispersion of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) and exfoliation of graphite in water. Four series of surfactants have been synthesised...
