In this work, multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) were functionalized with silver nanoparticles using two different methods of incorporation. Characterization of these composites was done using Raman spectroscopy and Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) and the antibacterial properties were measured using method of dilution and plating. The four-point probe method was used to measure the resistivity of the nanocomposite thin films made via the spin coating method.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
