Popis: | Carbon nanotube-based microcapsules with integral shells of cross-linked multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) have been prepared and characterized. Shells of amine-functionalized MWNTs can be obtained by heterocoagulating nanotubes on latex particles. Cross-linking and dissolving latex particles resulted in hollow shell microstructures with a shell of nanotubes. The average size of the microcapsules is controlled by the average size of the latex particles. |
