Abstract
Noncovalent functionalization of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) by anionic surfactants (sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate; SDBS and sodium cholate; SC) results in stable aqueous dispersions. SDBS showed better dispersing efficiency at lower concentration than that of SC due to the stabilizing π-π stacking induced by the presence of benzene ring in the tail of SBDS. The hemimicelle formation on the surface of nanotubes is likely to be the...
