Article Abstract
The ordered arrays of magnetic metal (including Fe, Co and Ni) nanotubes and nanowires encapsulated with carbon tubes are controllably synthesized by employing the array of C tubes as second-order template and combining with electrodeposition technique. The wall thickness and diameter of carbon nanotubes are uniform along the whole tubes; also the wall thickness of inner metal nanotubes is adjustable from 25 nm to solid nanowires. These composite structures are characterized by X-ray diffractometer (XRD), energy-dispersive spectrometry (EDS), Raman scattering spectrum, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The magnetic properties show that coaxial nanotubes and nanocables composite arrays all exhibit magnetic anisotropy with the easy direction perpendicular to axis of the metal nanotubes or nanowires except the Ni at C coaxial nanotubes array that has no preferable magnetization axis.

Carbon aerogels and xerogels, with their 3D porous architectures, ultralow density, high surface area, and excellent conductivity, have emerged as multifunctional materials for energy and environmental applications. This review highlights recent advances in the synthesis of these materials polymerisation, drying, and carbonisation, as well as the role of novel precursors such as graphene, carbon nanotubes, and biomass. Emphasis is also placed on doped and metal-decorated carbon gels as efficient electrocatalysts for oxygen reduction reactions, enabling four- and two-electron pathways for energy conversion and the production of green HO, respectively.

While non-destructive in-line monitoring at manufacturing sites is essential for safe distribution cycles of pharmaceuticals, efforts are still insufficient to develop analytical systems for detailed dynamic visualisation of foreign substances and material composition in target pills. Although spectroscopies, expected towards pharma testing, have faced technical challenges in in-line setups for bulky equipment housing, this work demonstrates compact dynamic photo-monitoring systems by selectively extracting informative irradiation-wavelengths from comprehensive optical references of target pills. This work develops a non-destructive in-line dynamic inspection system for pharma agent pills with carbon nanotube (CNT) photo-thermoelectric imagers and the associated ultrabroadband sub-terahertz (THz)-infrared (IR) multi-wavelength monitoring.

Bisphenol A (BPA) is a persistent organic pollutant with toxic effects on human health and ecosystems. In this study, the performance of MWCNT-OH functionalized with iron nanoparticles (MWCNT-OH@Fe) using sugarcane bagasse extract as a reducing agent (green synthesis) was evaluated for BPA adsorption. The kinetics are fast, between 10 and 20 min in the range of concentrations evaluated and the resistance to external film diffusion (external film mass transfer) identified as the rate-limiting step of the process.

Effective removal of trace heavy metal ions from aqueous bodies is a pressing problem and requires significant improvement in the area of absorbent material in terms of removal efficiency and sustainability. We propose an efficient strategy to enhance the adsorption efficiency of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) by growing dendrimers on their surface. First, CNTs were pre-functionalized with maleic acid (MA) via Diels-Alder reaction in presence of a deep eutectic solvent under ultrasonication.

A sensitive electrochemical glucose biosensor using ZrO₂@CNTs nanocomposite was developed for real-time metabolism monitoring for athletes. The nanocomposite was prepared by a simple ultrasound-assisted technique, and the glucose oxidase (GOx) was covalently immobilized to improve the biorecognition ability. CNTs treated with acid served as a highly conductive framework, and ZrO₂ nanoparticles can provide structural stability and catalytic performance, thus showing synergistic enhancement of electron transfer kinetics and enzyme loading capacity.
