Synthesis and characterization of polymer-based composites containing carbon nanostructures is the focus of this dissertation. The main polymer which has been used for this research is SU8. The motivation of the work is to overcome the drawbacks of SU8 e.g ...
Novel efficient adsorbents for acetaldehyde removal from diluted gas streams (similar to 1300 ppmv) have been developed. The adsorbents combine the properties of activated carbon fibers (ACF) and nanoparticles (NPs) of basic metal oxides (La2O3, CaO, MgO, ...
The effect of surface functionalities, specific surface area and pore size of activated carbon fibers (ACFs) on the adsorption of toluene and acetaldehyde, two volatile organic compounds (VOC), at low concentrations (similar to 80 ppmv) and short contact t ...
The study of oxygen chemisorption on single-walled carbon nanotubes generally relies on simple atomistic models and hence hampers the possibility to understand whether nanotube size or adduct concentration have a role in determining the surface adsorbate i ...
Semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) fluoresce in the near-IR and are promising as optical sensors when functionalized to enable analyte recognition. SWCNT sensors with enhanced fluorescence emission have been hypothesized to have greater ...
It has been suggested that amphiphilic amino acids play an important role in the adsorption of proteins on nanostructured surfaces with an ordered, striped domain structure such as those presented by monolayer-protected metal nanoparticles (MPMNs). We have ...
Density-functional-theory based calculations of two single-walled carbon nanotubes of different chirality settle open issues on the sidewall chemisorption of atomic oxygen at low concentrations. Ether groups are the thermodynamically favored configurations ...
The electrochemical polymerization of diphenylamine (DPA) onto electrodes of Pt coated with highly separated metallic (98%) or semiconducting (99%) single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) in the presence of H3PW12O40 was performed by cyclic voltammetry in ...
Composites based on polydiphenylamine (PDPA) doped with heteropolyanions of H3PW12O40 and single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) were prepared by electrochemical polymerization of diphenylamine (DPA) on carbon nanotube films deposited onto Pt electrodes. H ...
Contamination of the environment by anthropogenic volatile organic compounds (VOC) became of major concern during the last decades. Present in gas streams of many industrial exhausts, they are harmful and detrimental for both human health and environment e ...
