Tailoring of Carbon Nanotube Microstructure Using Poly(acrylic acid) and Poly(allylamine hydrochloride)
Keyword(s):
AbstractPoly(acrylic acid) (PAA) and poly(allylamine hydrochloride) (PAH) were used to tailor the microstructure of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) in both aqueous solutions and dry composite films. Microstructural changes were achieved as the pH of aqueous suspensions were changed, as evidenced by elevated suspension viscosity, scanning electron microscopy and electrical conductivity measurements. The ability to tailor microstructure is useful for aqueous SWNT processing and solid polymer nanocomposites.
