We present a combined experimental and theoretical study dedicated to analyzing the structural stability and chemical reactivity of single walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) in the presence of air and nitrogen atmospheres in the temperature interval of 300–1000 K.

ABSTRACTWe encapsulate a number of fullerenes inside single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) including La2@C80 and ErxSc3–xN@C80(x=0–3). The structural properties of these nanoscopic hybrid materials are described using high resolution transmission electron microscopy and electron diffraction. It is found that the encapsulated fullerenes self-assemble into long, one-dimensional chains. The thermal stability of these supramolecular assemblies are studied and large variations are found. The behavior is nominally consistent with the mass of the encapsulated metallofullerenes.

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.
