Design and investigation of block copolymers for dispersion of carbon nanotubes in polymer matrices by Liu, Chengyin

“…We dispersed SWNTs in epoxy resin using these copolymer dispersants and evaluated the mechanical properties of the composite films. The optimal copolymer dispersant (TB3b), which has epoxy groups on the end blocks, can disperse 2% loading of SWNTs and the tensile strength, modulus, and elongation at maximum stress of the composite film increased by 40%, 34%, and 26%, respectively compared to neat epoxy resin. …”

Ethanol sensor using tapered optical fiber coated with graphene-based nanomaterials by Girei, Saad Hayatu

“…As compared to the fiber coated with graphene, the ones coated with GO exhibited fast sensing performance by having both response and recovery times of less than 40 s. The GO coated sensor also exhibited higher sensitivity, as much as 0.814/vol% ethanol concentrations, than graphene coated sensor, 0.669/vol% ethanol concentrations. …”
