Abstract
The hydrophobic coating for multi-walled nanotubes was treated with toluene and trimethylchlorosilane glow discharge plasma under low pressure, and the hydrophobic surface of the treated MWCNT was investigates. In order to investigate the effects of -CH components from the toluene and TMCS glow plasma, we conducted on the total surface free energies of the MWCNT powder, which was calculated by measuring the contact angle between the cushion of MWCNT powder and the probe liquids. The total surface free energies were determined by Owens-Wendt equation and drastically decreased.
