Tunable surface wettability of carbon nanotubes-nonwoven textile composites
Tunable surface wettability of a material may have a valuable role in environmental application. We created a composite material from a nonwoven textile (NW) decorated with carboxylic functionalized carbon nanotubes (f-CNT) using a vacuum filtration method. The surface wettability of the composites...

| Summary: | Tunable surface wettability of a material may have a valuable role in environmental application. We created a composite material from a nonwoven textile (NW) decorated with carboxylic functionalized carbon nanotubes (f-CNT) using a vacuum filtration method. The surface wettability of the composites is tunable by the f-CNT amount. Surface wettability was checked by contact angle measurements. The morphology of the samples was observed by scanning electron microscopy. The isoelectric point of f-CNT was determined from electrophoretic mobilities measurements. This composite material with tunable wetting properties may be relevant e.g. in water purification. |
