Nanotube actuators for nanomechanics
Andrew Minett,Jerome Fr?ysse,Gu Gang,Gyu-Tae Kim,Siegmar Roth 한국물리학회 2002 Current Applied Physics Vol.2 No.1
Carbon nanotubes are unique nanostructures with interesting properties that suit them to a range of diverse applications including nanoscale electronics, use in composites, as gas storage media and scanning probe tips. An exciting property of carbon nanotubes is their ability to efficiently convert electrical energy into mechanical energy (actuation). Nanotube actuation is caused by the geometrical expansion of the carbon–carbon covalent bond caused by charge transfer into the nanotube [Abstract American Chemical Society 22 (1999); Abstract American Chemical Society 20 (2000)]. This ability to actuate, in addition to their high strength (1 TPa), makes macro-scale sheets of nanotubes termed ‘bucky paper’, ideal for artificial muscles [Science 284 (1999) 1340]. Carbon nanotube actuators based on bucky paper have been shown to generate an order of magnitude higher stresses than those observed for natural muscle. These promising results suggest that carbon nanotube actuators based on a single (or a few hundred) nanotubes will also lead to enhanced applications on the micro- or nano-scale in the biomedical or electronic fields. This paper provides an overview of carbon nanotube actuators, their exceptional properties, current research ideas and possibilities for future applications. 2002 Elsevier Science B.V.

Background: Despite the favorable geo-climatic potential of Cameroon, the national production of tilapia remains low due to poor tilapia growth reported by fish farmers. One of the underlying reasons is the early female maturation at a very small size and precocious breeding in earthen ponds, resulting in overpopulation which leads to stunted growth and therefore to the production of unmarketable fish size. Studies have shown that dietary supplementation of G. kola enhanced growth in young Clarias gariepinus and Oreochromis niloticus. It was also reported that G. kola inhibited spawning in Tilapia adult females. Therefore, this study sought to assess the effects of Garcinia kola as growth promoter and inhibitor of gonadal development in young Oreochromis niloticus. Methods: A total of 108 juveniles weighing 13.32 ± 0.62 g were randomly distributed in 9 hapas of 12 fishes each (9 females and 3 males) and fed for 70 days with three isonitrogenous diets, 40% crude protein with increasing Garcinia kola supplementation levels of 0 (normal diet), 6% and 10% (experimental diets). Physico-chemical parameters of the water (temperature, dissolved oxygen, pH, nitrate, nitrite, ammonia, and transparency) were measured twice a week. Every 14 days, fish were harvested, counted, and weighed. At the end of the experiment, three fish of each sex per replicate were sacrificed and their gonad and liver collected and weighed. Data were statistically analyzed using oneway analysis of variance repeated measure followed by Newman-Keuls multiple tests. Results: The results showed that all physico-chemical parameters of the water were within the recommended values for Tilapia culture. Tilapia fed 6% Garcinia kola supplemented diet displayed higher final body weight in males (38.60 ± 3.50 g) and females (36.77 ± 3.62 g) compared to those receiving normal diet (36.23 ± 1.36 g and 25.87 ± 3.32 g; respectively to the final body weight in males and females). The gonadosomatic index and hepatosomatic index indicated no significant variation in males while in females, these were significantly low in the experimental fish compared to control fish. Conclusion: The results of this study demonstrated that supplementation of G. kola seeds in diets of young Tilapia improved growth performance and impaired gonadal development in females.

Removal of natural organic matter in water using functionalised carbon nanotube buckypaper
Yang, X.,Lee, J.,Yuan, L.,Chae, S.R.,Peterson, V.K.,Minett, A.I.,Yin, Y.,Harris, A.T. Pergamon Press ; Elsevier Science Ltd 2013 Carbon Vol.59 No.-
A simple, surfactant-free assembly process was used to prepare multi-wall carbon nanotube (CNT) buckypapers using a highly efficient purification, sonication, and filtration process. To achieve effective dispersion of CNT into ethanol, a minimum 5-min sonication time was required. Here, we fabricated a buckypaper with pore size of 41+/-10nm and porosity of 72.9% with a 10-min sonication. The as-prepared buckypaper was used as a membrane for humic acid (HA) removal from water. During purification process, carboxylic and hydroxylic functional groups were introduced onto the CNT surface. The functional groups increased the hydrophilicity of the CNTs and improved the removal efficiency of HA by the buckypaper. The buckypaper prepared from purified CNTs exhibited excellent removal of HA (>93%) and a long lifetime for filtration.
