DISPERSION AND FLOATING PERCENTAGE AS A SIMPLE INDICATOR OF THE AMOUNT OF AMORPHOUS CARBONS IN CARBON NANOTUBE ARRAYS

Carbon nanotubes contain impurities and deamorphization is one of the methods of their purification. In this study, for the first time, a solution of piranha with a ratio of 3:1 (30 ml sulfuric acid + 10 ml hydrogen peroxide) as well as microwave irradiation with processing time of 30 minutes were u...
