Aggregation of Synthetic Chrysotile Nanotubes in the Bulk and in Solution Probed by Nitrogen Adsorption and Viscosity Measurements

Abstract: Chrysotile nanotubes (ChNTs) were synthesized under hydrothermal conditions. The shape and size of individual ChNTs were examined by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Specific surface area (SSA) of nanotubes surface treated with a silane coupling agent and of pristine nanotubes in the bulk was determined by BET analysis of N 2 adsorption at 77 K. The theoretical SSA of a single nanotube and of nanotubes organized in a bundle was calculated as a function of nanotube geometrical parameters and the bundle s… Show more

“…9 [10]. The chrysotile nanotubes obtained by synthesis method are characterized by the 1 average outer diameter 14 nm and the average inner diameter of the channel 3 nm [10]. But 2 these synthetic tubes were shorter (from 10 nm to 600 nm) than the raw ones.…”

“…Therefore, in this case only partial (fragmentary) leaching of 8 octahedral layer can be noted and thus the crystal structure is preserved. 9 [10].
