[nanoPost] Solutions of CNT

CNT production methods generally induce different kinds of pollution or entangled nanotubes; so they can not be used directly. . So various treatments have been developed such as adding dispersing polymers or surfactants and/ or ultra sound exposition or functionalization. We do not focus on dispersing nanotubes but actually dissolving them avoiding the drawbacks of the above mentioned methods (cutting nanotubes, remaining of polymer or dissolving agent on nanotubes…)

Solutions of nanotubes interest industrials who want to purify CNT or integrate them in high added value products such as compounds, composites, nanotube mesophases, bucky paper, films or aerogels or exploit electrical or optical properties of pure CNT. Solutions are available.

BENEFITS

• no surfactant, no ultra sound (CNT damages), no surface functionalization. 
•  Less nanotubes are needed as their integrity has been preserve
• Our patent has been considered as relevant by examiners for the following invention: WO2007 098578 National Research Council Canada
