Preparation and characterization of multi‐walled carbon nanotubes decorated with silver nanoparticles through ultraviolet irradiation reduction

Abstract: A facile, green and efficient approach was applied to synthesize multi‐walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) decorated with silver nanoparticles (MWNT‐Ag) for further potential application. Oxidized MWNTs were decorated with silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) via a method combining ultraviolet irradiation‐induced reduction and conventional silver mirror reaction without any reducing agent. The obtained product was characterized using various methods. X‐ray diffraction proved that the Ag NPs were synthesized successfully.… Show more

“…[12][13][14][15][16] In addition, the deposition of metallic silver on MWCNT surfaces can further improve their performances due to their high thermal and electrical conductivities. [17][18][19][20] Better interaction between Ag-NPs and MWCNTs might be achieved by strong covalent bonds or weak intermolecular bonds, such as hydrophobic interactions, hydrogen bonding or electrostatic attractions. Furthermore, synergetic effects might be created in Ag-NP-modied MWCNTs, which might improve both the electrical and thermal conductivities as well as enhance the toughening effect.…”
