Functionalizing Graphene and Carbon Nanotubes: A Review (SpringerBriefs in Applied Sciences and Technology)

by Filipe Vargas Ferreira, Luciana De Simone Cividanes, Felipe Sales Brito, Beatriz Rossi Canuto de Menezes, Wesley Franceschi, Evelyn Alves Nunes Simonetti, and Gilmar Patrocinio Thim

This book compiles all current information on the different types of functionalization of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and graphene, both covalent and non-covalent. The book starts with a general overview of the synthesis, characterization and application of functionalized CNTs and graphene. Special attention is dedicated to the characterization of functionalized materials, a topic rarely addressed on the literature. The authors provide a comparison between the functionalization of these two types of carbon materials.
