Synthesis and characterization of core-shell structural MWNT-zirconia nanocomposites.
Core-shell structural MWNT/ZrO2 nanocomposites were successfully prepared by one-step hydrolyzing of MWNT-dispersed ZrOCl2.8H2O aqueous solution. A highly conformal and uniform monoclinic zirconia coating was deposited on MWNTs by this new and simple method, and the thickness of the coating increased with the reaction time.
