چکیده

The aim of the current research is concentrated on the modification of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) using TiO2 nanoparticles at rutile phase. In order to elucidate the role of TiO2 content on photocatalyst behavior of MWCNTs, the hybrids were prepared with different amounts of TiO2 nanoparticles. the opening and functionalization of MWCNTs were carried out by oxidation with nitric acid solution. The samples were characterized by Fourier Transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). FTIR results show that functional groups such as carboxylic and hydroxyl groups have been successfully attached to the surface of nanotubes after acid treatment. The attaching these oxygen containing groups lead to easy dispersion of CNTs in polar solution. TEM results of oxidized MWCNTs illustrated opening of MWCNTs at the end tips. The micrographs taken from the modified carbon nanotubes prove that the surface of MWCNTs is decorated with nano-sized TiO2. The TEM results revealed that the average size of TiO2 nanoparticles which modified MWCNTs were 20nm. TGA results confermed that there was no obvious weight loss between 300 and 400℃, therefore there is no amorphous carbons in the raw samples The results obtained from thermal behavior of modified CNTs revealed that the hybrid with highest amount of TiO2 had the higher temperature of decomposition.

COI مخفف عبارت CIVILICA Object Identifier به معنی شناسه سیویلیکا برای اسناد است. COI کدی است که مطابق محل انتشار، به مقالات کنفرانسها و ژورنالهای داخل کشور به هنگام نمایه سازی بر روی پایگاه استنادی سیویلیکا اختصاص می یابد.

کد COI به مفهوم کد ملی اسناد نمایه شده در سیویلیکا است و کدی یکتا و ثابت است و به همین دلیل همواره قابلیت استناد و پیگیری دارد.
