1. A method of forming a coated substrate having a plurality of carbon nanoparticles, each nanoparticle defining a surface, the method comprising:

  • oxidizing the carbon nanoparticles to form oxygen containing end groups on the surfaces of the carbon nanoparticles;

    dispersing the oxidized carbon nanoparticles into a polymeric media to form an ink, wherein the polymeric media comprises a polymeric material; and

    applying the ink onto a substrate to form a coating, wherein the coating includes the oxidized carbon nanoparticles dispersed within the polymeric material.
