Polyethylene glycol grafting and attachment of encapsulated magnetic iron oxide silica nanoparticles onto chlorosilanized single-wall carbon nanotubes

It is demonstrated that functionalization of single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) can be carried out using simple chlorosilane chemistry, which allows coupling of the SWCNTs with external chemical species. As a result, organic polymers and magnetically iron oxide-in-silica nanoparticles are specifi...
