Improving the Dispersion and Integration of Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes in Epoxy Composites through Functionalization
Jiang Zhu,Jong Dae Kim,Haiqing Peng,John L. Margrave,Valery N. Khabashesku,Enrique V. Barrera +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors demonstrate the practical use of combining acid treatment and fluorination to achieve functionalization and unroping of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs).

Single-Walled Carbon Nanotube Induces Oxidative Stress and Activates Nuclear Transcription Factor-κB in Human Keratinocytes
Sunil K. Manna,Shubhashish Sarkar,Johnny Barr,Kimberly Wise,Enrique V. Barrera,Olufisayo Jejelowo,‖ and Allison C. Rice-Ficht,Govindarajan T. Ramesh +7 more
TL;DR: Results from the study suggest that SWCNT particles activate NF-κB in a dose-dependent manner in human keratinocytes, and the mechanism of activation was due to the activation of stress-related kinases by SWC NT particles in keratinocyte cells.
Nanotube film based on single-wall carbon nanotubes for strain sensing
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the strain sensing characteristic of carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) to develop a carbon-nanotube film sensor that can be used for strain sensing on the macro scale.
