This article examines the chemical functionalization and structural alteration of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs). It describes the covalent functionalization of the SWCNT framework that is the covalent attachment of functional entities onto the CNT scaffold. In particular, it considers the chemical modification and reactivity of SWCNTs in the context of the reactivity of graphite and fullerenes. It also discusses the defect and sidewall functionalization of SWCNTs, along with various techniques used in the characterization ofSWCNTs upon functionalization, namely: thermogravimetric analysis, spectroscopic techniques such as UV-Vis-NIR spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy, and microscopic techniques like transmission electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy and scanning tunnelling microscopy.

AbstractCarboxylated Single Walled Carbon Nanotubes (SWNT-COOH) were functionalized using different types of amines as modifier agents to improve the compatibility with the epoxy matrix. Covalent attachment was proved by XPS and Raman spectroscopy. TGA showed that only long chain modifier agents improved the thermal stability of modified SWNTs. Epoxy-based composites were synthesized using diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A (DGEBA) as polymer matrix and modified SWNTs as reinforcing agent.
