Abstract
A “growth from the surface” method for selectively depositing oxidative Liquid Phase Polymerizations (LPPs) onto the carbon nanotube (CNT) surface, said method comprising steps of: a. obtaining Multi-walled Carbon Nanotubes (MWC-NT); b. oxidized said MWCNTs to obtain oxidized COOH-MWCNTs; thereby (a) carboxylative opening oxidation-sensitive end-caps (polyCOOH end cluster); and, (b) introducing defect carboxylic (COOH) groups onto predetermined areas of said oxidized COOH-MWCNTs; c. COOH activating the polyCOOH shell using various COOH activating species; and, d. executing Liquid Phase Polymerization (LPP) oxidative depositing polymers selected from said polyCOOH polyTh-CP polymers, polyCOOH poly-Th-, polyEDOT (PEDOT)-, polyTh polyCOOH poly(thiophenyl-3 acetic acid, thiophenyl-3 acetic acid/EDOT, polyX, wherein X is elected from COOH, OH, NH2, polyCbz/polyPyr CP polymers and related combinatorial mixtures, polyCOOH PEDOT-poly(thiophenyl-3 acetic acid)′ thereby selectively depositing said oxidative LPPs onto said CNT surface.
