A simple self-assembly approach has been developed to functionalize carbon nanotubes (CNTs) with chitosan (CS) and heteropolyacids (HPAs) of phosphomolybdic acid (H(3)PMo(12)O(40), HPMo) and phosphotungstic acid (H(3)PW(12)O(40), HPW). The non-covalent functionalization method, which introduces homogenous surface functional groups with no

Barium-137m availed from a (137)Cs/(137m)Ba generator is an attractive industrial radiotracer for liquid flow rate measurement owing to its short half-life (T(1/2)=2.5 min) and emission of highly energetic gamma radiation (E(γ)=661.7 keV). Ammonium molybdophosphate (AMP) impregnated alumina microspheres (AMP-Al(2)O(3)), an

Hybrid films composed of oppositely charged Keggin-type 12-molybdophosphoric acid H(3)PMo(12)O(40).nH(2)O (PMo(12)) and water-soluble cationic meso-tetra (N-methyl-4-pyridyl) porphinetetratosylate (TMPyP) were fabricated onto silicon and ITO substrates by a layer-by-layer (LbL) self-assembly technique. The LbL films were characterized by UV-vis spectroscopy, X-ray
