Abstract
Fluorination of single-walled carbon nanotubes by reaction with elemental fluorine at elevated temperatures provides fluorinated single-walled carbon nanotubes (F-SWNT), which have the highest degree of functionalization (up to F/C=1/2) of any derivatized carbon-nanotube material reported to date. Also, F-SWNTs have received more scrutiny than any other functionalized carbon nanotubes. This Minireview covers experimental and computational investigations of F-SWNTs with a focus on the nature and the strength of the C–F linkage.Keywords
