Abstract
The sonication assisted deposition of Cu2O nanoparticles on multiwall carbon nanotubes with polyol process was analyzed. Cu2O had a potential application in photocatalytic degradation of organic pollutants under visible light. The coating of carbon nanotube (CNT) with metals, inorganic compounds and polymers were reported. It was observed that Cu2O nanoparticles were formed on the nanotube surface were crystalline in nature as well-resolved lattice fringes were seen.Keywords
