Three-Dimensional Hybrids

Though carbon nanotubes (GNTs) constitute one of the most important ID fillers due to their amazing mechanical. 

A number of synthetic techniques have been successfully employed for the preparation of clay/CNT hybrids. The most commonly used techniques are in situ growth of CNTs on clay layers in presence of different catalyst [105], wet mixing of organically-modified CNT with clay [106] and dry grinding of CNT and MMT [25,104,107]. These prepared MMT/ CNT hybrids are used as reinforcing filler in epoxy/nylon-6/ PEO [108], hydrogen peroxide sensors and biosensors [109].

Three-dimensional hybrid hydrogel networks were also prepared by the authors in the current application by functionalizing the step 5 derivatives with metha-cryloyl dextran. 

Bu2)2Sn(2,5-PDC) 3] (2,5-PDC = 2,5-pyridinedicarboxylate, D = Lewis base, such as DMSO, H2O) and [ (n-Bu2)2Sn(l,3-BDC)(D) 3] (1,3-BDC = 1,3-benzenedicarboxylate) (Table 2.4.2, entries 4 and 6) deserve special mention. Both of these are macrocyclic compounds formed as a result of intermolecular bridging by the dicarboxylate ligands. Among these, [ (n-Bu2)2Sn(2,5-PDC) 3] forms a three-dimensional hybrid supramolecular network which traps hydrophobic molecules in its microporous channels. ...

In other pursuits, the utilisation/fabrication of doped graphene structures (or the fabrication of novel three-dimensional hybrid/composite graphene materials) has been reported to be useful due to the significantly altered electrochemical properties, where modification of the graphene can result in improved conduction or electronic properties (DOS), increased disorder and/or edge plane accessibility [41, 42].
