A Comparative Study of the Oxidation and Wet Chemical Methods for Uncapping the Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotubes

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are generally capped at either end with a half of a fullerene. Hence, for storing different materials into the hollow space of CNTs, their caps need to be removed in the first step. In this study, we studied both the oxidation and wet chemical (acid-based) methods for opening...
