In this work, the variations in surface properties of the carbon nanotubes due to the adsorption of polyacrylic acid (PAA) was investigated based on the nitrogen adsorption isotherms.It is indicated that the adsorption of PAA greatly influences the original surface properties of the carbon nanotubes.A remarkable decrease in BET specific surface area (SBET) was found while the adsorption amount of PAA increased.And the patterns of pore size distribution (PSD) of the treated carbon nanotubes are similar to those of the original ones, especially in the range of 1.8~4.4 nm, however, the pore volume decreases as the adsorption of PAA increases and a new type of pore with the width less than 1.8 nm appears.The surface fractal dimension (dSF) calculated from the nitrogen adsorption isotherms employing the thermodynamic methods shows that the adsorbed PAA can lower the surface roughness of carbon nanotubes.All the observed variation in SBET, PSD and dSF could be attributed to the pore blocking effect and surface screening effect of the adsorbed PAA.This study will facilitate the understanding and application in the field of adsorbent and catalyst.

Key words: carbon nanotube, PAA, adsorption, specific surface area, pore size distribution, surface fractal dimension
