Dispersion of pristine single-walled carbon nanotubes in water by a thiolated organosilane: Application in supramolecular nanoassemblies
Article Abstract:
A novel technique is presented to disperse pristine single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) in water by ultrasonication in the presence of a thiolated organosilane and subsequent ultracentrifugation. The results have shown that these dispersed SWNTs would be an excellent scaffold for the realization of supramolecular nanoassemblies useful for a variety of applications ranging from nanoelectronics to drug delivery systems.

Calorimetric study of the effect of water quantity on tetramethoxysilane hydrolysis under ultrasound stimulation
Article Abstract:
The ultrasound stimulated and oxalic acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of tetramethoxysilane (TMOS) is studied by means of a heat flux calorimetric method as a function of the initial water/TMOS molar ratio (r) ranging from 2 to 10. The total hydrolyzed quantity was found to be slightly increasing with TMOS molar ratio.
