We've oxidized MWCNTs in Conc.H2SO4 and HNO3 in the ratio 3:1 and tried to wash it by centrifuging. But CNTs are stabilized in the medium and we could not precipitate or settle it down even with centrifuging at 12000 rpm for an hour. We had already tried at 4500 rpm for a day completely. Can someone suggest a method other than the filtration to separate it?
