• tensile strength [9] and elastic modulus [10], CNTs form the strongest and stiffest material that humans have created. These properties offer a wide range of potential applications [11][12], for electronic devices, energy storage and transport, nanocomposite materials, and nanomedicine. The as-synthesized

• for non-polar liquids [5]. One of the cutting edge areas of research exploiting CNTs is nanomedicine where the interface of CNTs with a liquid environment is essential, e.g., subcutaneous glucose sensors [6], microcatheters [7] or tissue engineering materials [8]. Until now, physical compatibility of

A large number of investigations can be found that address potential technological applications, preparation methods and fundamental properties of magnetic NPs, such as in photonics [6][7], nanomedicine [8
