From carbides in steel to cobalt–carbon covalent bonds in vitamin B 12, transition metal (TM)–
carbon interactions play a critical role in so many aspects of human life that we rarely realize …

The present chapter covers the designing, development, properties and applications of
carbon nanotube-loaded polymer composites. The first section will provide a brief overview …

In the present investigation, carbon foam (CF) has been decorated with multi-wall carbon
nanotubes (MWCNTs) by two different routes to improve its electromagnetic interference …

In order to address problems associated with conventional drug therapy, such as limited
drug solubility, poor biodistribution, lack of property, and unfavourable pharmacological …

In the current scenario, nanotechnological applications in the agriculture sector showing
potential impacts on the improvement of plant growth in terms of protection and safety are at …

The importance of carbonaceous catalyst support materials in polymer electrolyte
membrane (PEM) fuel cell is well known. In this study, we used two different types of …

Segregation, shedding and burnout of carbon nanotubes are the key issues limiting the
development of carbon nanotube composite coatings for thermal spraying. In this work …

In high temperature annealing of carbon nanotube (CNTs) bundles for structure and thermal
conductivity (κ) improvement, the statistical errors from sample-wide structure variation and …

The realized mechanical properties of CNT macrostructures such as webs and yarns remain
significantly lower than those of the individual CNTs. Structural changes induced by thermal …

Using nickel nitrate as catalyst precursor, a cost effective method for large scale preparation
of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) was investigated through catalytic pyrolysis of phenol resin in …
