POLYMER-BASED COMPOSITES COMPRISING CARBON NANOTUBES AS A FILLER, METHOD FOR PRODUCING SAID COMPOSITES, AND ASSOCIATED USES

Producing a composite material comprising carbon nanotubes in a polymer matrix comprises preparing a catalyst system comprising a catalyst and cocatalyst supported on carbon nanotubes, activating the catalyst system, and polymerizing a monomer on the surface of the carbon nanotubes. Independent clai...

More Information
Summary:Producing a composite material comprising carbon nanotubes in a polymer matrix comprises preparing a catalyst system comprising a catalyst and cocatalyst supported on carbon nanotubes, activating the catalyst system, and polymerizing a monomer on the surface of the carbon nanotubes. Independent claims are also included for: (1) catalyst system as above for carrying out the above process; (2) composite material produced as above; (3) use of the above process to disaggregate carbon nanotubes; (4) polymerizing a monomer as above until the product comprises less than 0.1% carbon nanotubes and more than 99.9% polymer.
