OH Functionalized High Purified SWCNTs
Introduction:
OH functionalized high purity single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) are carbon nanotubes that have undergone chemical modification to incorporate hydroxyl (-OH) groups on their surface, while maintaining a high level of purity. This functionalization enhances their solubility in aqueous environments and improves their reactivity, making them suitable for various applications. The high purity of these SWCNTs ensures that they exhibit optimal performance characteristics, free from significant impurities or defects that could hinder their utility.
