[15a-A403-5] Machine-learned 100 %-yield carbon nanotube dissolution in arbitrary organic solvents
Keywords:carbon nanotubes, dispersion, organic solvents
The efficient colloidal dispersion of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) is limited for a few solvents such as water. Conducting polymers enables SWCNTs’ dispersion and its solvents are non-polar or low-polar. More practically, dispersion adaptive to polar solvents ranging from alcohol to ether is highly desired. Herein we demonstrate efficient SWCNTs dispersion in arbitrary organic solvents using various surfactants.
