Abstract:
In this paper functionalized multiwall carbon nanotubes (FMWCNT) were modified using atenolol
as a class of drugs that were used in cardiovascular diseases containing reactable nitrogen, which
could attach chemically to functionalized MWCNT. This product was characterized by Fourier
transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and Raman spectroscopy. These spectrums proved the
existence of nitrogen atoms of amide due to new functional group. The morphology were also determined
by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and showed that this product was synthesized in
the nanometer dimension. Thermal gravimetery (TGA) analysis was also used to evaluate thermal
properties.
