Binding stability of β-CD on MWCNTS: Role of washing cycle on the β-CD coating
The functionalisation of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) represents a strategy not only to improve the CNTs dispersion, solubility, and processability, but also to allow strong interfacial interactions to take place between CNTs and guest molecules. In this study, beta-cyclodextrins (β-CD) was used to funct...
