Summary: A novel modification technique was proposed to immobilize nanoparticles on a boron-doped diamond surface via nanopores, preventing aggregation and improving stability. The modified electrode showed good selectivity, increased peak current for dopamine, and enhanced sensitivity for detection, with a wide linear range and low detection limit. Real sample tests validated the promising performance of the modified electrode in detecting dopamine in human serum and injections.

Summary: Four types of nanocellulosic materials with different functional groups were used to disperse multiwalled carbon nanotubes, resulting in composite electrodes with excellent stability and electrochemical properties in different electrolytes. Anionic fibrillar nanocellulosic composites showed strong electrostatic and physical enrichment effects, while denser crystalline composites did not exhibit such behavior. This study provides insights for developing customizable nanocellulose/carbon nanomaterial hybrid platforms for various electrochemical applications.

Summary: This study presents a method to enhance the electrical performance of CNT films by controlling the wettability of LMWCNT films and the electrical conductivity of the Cu plating solution. Thermal deoxygenation was used to modify the CNT surface, providing high conductivity and hydrophilicity for uniform Cu electrodeposition in an aqueous electrolyte. The results show that Cu nucleates from inside the CNT film and grows on the surface, forming a densely packed CNT-Cu composite.

Summary: In this study, the mechanical, DC conductivity, and electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding properties of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and carbon fiber reinforced polypropylene (CNC) nanocomposites were investigated. The results showed that the combination of CF and MWCNT improved the tensile strength and modulus of the nanocomposites, and the percolation behavior improved the DC electrical conductivity. The CNC nanocomposites exhibited high EMI shielding effectiveness in the X-band for a 2 mm thick sample, and efforts have been made to develop a compatible EMI shielding material using multiple fillers.

Summary: Experimental investigation on piezoresistive strain sensing of multiwalled carbon nanotube (CNT)-reinforced polymer nanocomposites reveals that the electrical resistance decreases nonlinearly when CNT is added up to 1.5 wt%, while agglomeration of CNT causes a decrease in electrical properties and mechanical properties of the nanocomposite at higher filler content. Additionally, it is shown that CNT agglomeration decreases strain sensing in the nanocomposite, and different piezoresistive behaviors are explained based on piezoresistivity mechanisms.
