Abstract:Single walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) have been rendered water soluble as an aryl aziridino derivative decorated with carboxylic acids as a Mn (II) complex (III). This leads to increased root growth in Arabidopsis thaliana. The discovery of Nano‐carbon materials (NCMs) [Fullerenes, Carbon Nano Tubes (CNTs) and Graphene] has been recognized by the award of two Nobel prizes. Large‐scale industrial use of NCMs is hampered by their low solubility in most common solvents. The tensile strength of SWCNTs is approxi… Show more
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.
