Method of making carbon nanotube patterned film or carbon nanotube composite material using a composition comprising carbon nanotubes surface-modified with polymerizable moieties

摘要

Disclosed herein is a method of making a polymerized carbon nanotube composite having interpenetrating polymer network(IPN) by modifying the surfaces of the carbon nanotubes with polymerizable functional groups such as oxirane and anhydride groups and subjecting the surface-modified carbon nanotubes either to a photolithography process or to a heatcuring process. By virtue of the present invention, polymerized carbon nanotube composites improved in hardening properties can be made without additional polymers.
