Hybrid Plasma–Liquid Functionalisation for the Enhanced Stability of CNT Nanofluids for Application in Solar Energy Conversion

Macroscopic ribbon-like assemblies of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are functionalised using a simple direct-current-based plasma–liquid system, with oxygen and nitrogen functional groups being added. These modifications have been shown to reduce the contact angle of the ribbons, with the greatest reducti...
