Stability of alginic acid (AA)-dispersed multiwall carbon nanotubes (CNT) CNT-1, CNT-2, and CNT-3, graphene nanoplatelets (GNP) GNP-1 and GNP-2, boron nitride nanotubes (BNNT), and hexagonal boron nitride flakes (hBN) in Nanopure water over 7 days, as evidenced by the time course of (a) the relative optical density at 600 nm (OD₆₀₀, as a proxy for dispersed particle concentration) as compared to the OD₆₀₀ at time 0 of the experiment; and (b) hydrodynamic diameter as measured by dynamic light scattering (DLS). The dispersion protocol followed the steps for preparing AA-dispersed NM stock in Nanopure water by ultrasonication (Scheme 1a). Data points are mean ± SE (n = 3).
