摘要:
The current application relates to a method for solubilizing (dispersing and debundling) of carbon nanotubes using a gemini surfactant, which has head groups and a spacer linking the head groups. The dispersion of nanotubes produced by said method can be used as a delivery system for biologically active agents to an organism.

A novel fine carbon fiber is produced by vapor growth, in which a graphite-net plane consisting of carbon atoms alone forms a temple-bell-shaped structural unit comprising closed head-top part and body-part with open lower-end, where an angle θ formed by a generatrix of the body-part and a fiber axis is less than 15°, 2 to 30 of the temple-bell-shaped structural units are stacked sharing a central axis to form an aggregate, and the aggregates are connected in head-to-tail style with a distance, thereby forming a fiber. Furthermore, a fine short carbon fibers with excellent dispersibility can be obtained by shortening the fine carbon fiber.
