Abstract: HYPOTHESIS Synthetic imogolite nanotubes form stable colloidal dispersions that may also exhibit a rich liquid-crystalline phase behavior according to the nanotube length to diameter ratio. Anisometric double-walled aluminogermanate nanotubes are now readily available through hydrothermal… read more here.

DOI: 10.1021/acsomega.2c02803
Abstract: Imogolite nanotubes (INTs) were synthesized from tetraethoxysilane, aluminum nitrate nonahydrate, and ammonia solution by the method of Arancibia-Miranda, and their dispersion was modified by 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate ([BMIM]PF6) to obtain ionic liquid (IL)-functionalized INTs (INTs-PF6-ILs). Then,… read more here.
