CARBON NANOTUBE DISPERSION PASTE, CARBON NANOTUBE DISPERSION SOLUTION AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING THE SAME

摘要

PPROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a carbon nanotube dispersion paste and dispersion solution in which a carbon nanotube is stable in an isolated and dispersed state, and to provide a production method which can be used for simply and promptly producing the same. PSOLUTION: Amphoteric molecules such as an amphoteric surfactant are mixed with carbon nanotube aggregate (bundle). As a result, the carbon nanotube dispersion paste can be obtained. The carbon nanotube dispersion solution is obtained by dissolving a dispersion paste in solution of an ion having a high polarity and a polymer having electric charge. A carbon nanotube dispersion obtained by such processes is applicable to various usages such as a toxic substance-remover, a carbon nanotube glass, a carbon nanotube cell culture substrate, a carbon nanotube film, a carbon nanotube oriented film, a carbon nanotube bead, a carbon nanotube fiber, and a carbon nanotube coating.
