title: Noncovalent attachment of oxide nanoparticles onto carbon nanotubes using water-in-oil microemulsions.
abstract: We report a simple and general noncovalent method for attaching ZnO and MgO nanoparticles onto MWNTs using water-in-oil microemulsions, which is important for preserving the mechanical and electrical properties of carbon nanotubes.
