Deposition of Pristine and Functionalized MWCNTs in Alumina Matrix by Sol-Gel Technique and Investigation of their Ammonia Sensing Properties
MWCNTs produced by using Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) technique were functionalized with nitric and sulfuric acid to ensure a good dispersion in an aqueous solution. The FTIR analysis further confirmed the presence of carboxyl and hydroxyl groups on the surface of MWCNTs after acid treatment. The...
