2015 AIChE Annual Meeting Proceedings

Session: Graphene and Carbon Nanotubes: Characterization, Functionalization, and Dispersion

This session focuses on the characterization, functionalization, and dispersion of graphene, carbon nanotubes, and related materials. The effects of functionalization and dispersion state on the properties of assembled materials are also of interest.
