Diameter-selective dispersion of single-walled carbon nanotubes using a water-soluble, biocompatible polymer.
One-step diameter-selective dispersion of HiPco single-walled carbon nanotubes has been accomplished through noncovalent complexation of the nanotubes with a water-soluble, biocompatible polymer chitosan at room temperature.
