Rational design of amphiphilic polymers to make carbon nanotubes water-dispersible, anti-biofouling, and functionalizable

Sangjin Park, Hae-Sik Yang, Dongkyu Kim, Kyungmin Jo and Sangyong Jon


We report rational design of amphiphilic polymers capable of making carbon nanotubes (CNTs) highly water dispersible and resistant to biofouling; such CNTs can be conjugated with bioactive molecules so as to be potential drug delivery vehicles.
