Nanocomposites with antibacterial properties using CNTs with magnetic nanoparticles

Abstract: 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.

“…As a rule, both ends of a CNT have hemispheres the so-called "caps", which include pentagons in addition to hexagons, thus making them similar to a half of the fullerene molecule [221,224]. It is possible to open CNT ends by strong oxidizing agents such as nitric and perchloric acids, or ozone, which open access for various substances to the internal cavity for creating transport systems [237][238][239][240][241][242][243][244][245][246][247][248][249]. Methods for CNT size "calibration"using ultracentrifugation, dialysis, and "cutting" them to achieve the desired length have been developed.…”

“…AgNP-loaded CNT and TiO 2 nanotubes possess high efficiency in photocatalytic applications [6][7][8] including antibacterial photocatalysis in visible light [9]. Additionally, Ag-CNT nanocomposites are considered promising gas sensors [10,11], catalysts [12], antibacterial agents [13][14][15] and drug delivery carriers [16].…”
