What is it about?
A well known chemical reaction is used to graft organic moieties to carbon nanotubes, but following a non conventional approach. Instead of batch synthesis, chemistry is carried on in a solution flowing inside a thin tube with a diameter < 1 mm. This allowed to dramatically speed up the reaction.
