In this paper, the chemical functionalization of carboxylated  shortend multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNT-COOH) by sunset yellow dye via esterification  method in water have been investigated.The functionalized MWNTs were characterized by Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), Raman spectroscopy, elemental analysis,scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Defunctionalization test and UV analysis.
