The interactions between CPNs and CNTs are studied with spectroscopy (UV-Vis, fluorescence and Raman) and electron microscopy techniques are used to confirm attachment of CPNs to the CNT sidewalls.EnglishAlcoholConjugated polymer nanoparticleMulti walled nanotubePolymerUnclassified drugWaterAqueous solutionChemical structureConjugateCulture mediumDispersionFluorescence spectroscopyGel permeation chromatographyMolecular interactionNanocatalysisParticle sizeRaman spectrometryScanning electron microscopySuzuki reactionSynthesisTransmission electron microscopyUltraviolet spectroscopyX ray spectrometryNanoparticlesNanotubes, carbonPolymersSpectrophotometry, ultravioletArticle10.1039/c0cc00510j1364-548X
