Optimization of Triton X-100 removal and ultrasound probe parameters in the preparation of multiwalled carbon nanotube buckypaper

A highly porous film composed of a three-dimensional network of multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT), also known as buckypaper (BP), was prepared by vacuum filtration of a well-dispersed suspension of MWCNT/H20 with the aid Triton X-100 surfactant. The key contribution of this work is to achieve the best parameters during the preparation of the suspension and find the best way to remove the excess triton X-100 from the nanotube network. The...
