Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) and double-walled carbon nanotubes (DWNTs) have been functionalized through the wet-mechanochemical reaction method. Results from the infrared spectrum and zeta potential measurements show that the hydroxyl groups have been introduced onto the treated SWNT and DWNT surfaces. Transmission electron microscope observations revealed that the SWNTs and DWNTs were cut short after being milled. SWNTs and DWNTs with optimized aspect ratio can be obtained by adjusting the ball milling parameters. Thermal conductivity enhancement of water-based nanofluids containing treated carbon nanotubes (CNTs) shows augmentation with the increase of temperature mainly due to the effects of an ordering liquid layer forming around the chemical surfaces of CNTs. Moreover, the thicker interfacial layer of water molecules on the surfaces of CNTs with smaller diameter, such as SWNTs, is in favor of greater thermal conductivity enhancement compared with the thinner one on the surfaces of DWNTs or MWNTs with larger diameter.
