摘要
In this research, synthesis of magnesium oxide-multi walled carbon nanotube (MgO/MWCNTs) nanocomposite is reported using sol-gel method in which magnesium nitrate is added to aqueous solution. The structure of MWCNTs and MgO/MWCNTs composite has been characterized by analyzing the X-ray diffraction pattern (XRD), Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) spectra and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) images. Experimental results indicate that the surface of purified MWCNTs sample is covered homogenously by a layered of MgO nanoparticles.
