Characterisation of Graphene in Liquid and Gaseous Environment with Quartz Crystal Microbalance for Applications in Real-Life Energy Storage Devices

Mazzocco R., Robinson B., Kolosov O., Lancaster University, UK

Graphene is a flat monolayer of carbon atoms whose extraordinary properties are to revolutionize the performance of many technological applications. Unfortunately there is very little understanding of how the properties of graphene change in its [...]

Processing and Characterization of Epon 862 reinforced with functionalized MWCNT’s

Theodore M., Hosur M.V., Thomas J., Jeelani S., Tusekgee University, US

In the current research work, functionalization of pristine MWCNTs was performed by oxidation in acid solution (MWCNT-COOH), direct-fluorination (MWCNT-F), and amino-functionalization (MWCNT-NH2). An epoxy-nanocomposite material was developed through the use of functionalized Multi-wall Carbon Nanotubes [...]
