PROCESS FOR PRODUCING SINGLE-WALLED CARBON NANOTUBE, SINGLE-WALLED CARBON NANOTUBE, AND COMPOSITION CONTAINING SINGLE-WALLED CARBON NANOTUBE

摘要

Manufacture of a single-walled carbon nano-tube comprises contacting a carbon source comprising a compound having oxygen or a mixture of a compound having oxygen and a compound having carbon, with a catalyst under a heating temperature. Independent claims are also included for: (1) the single-walled carbon nano-tube; and (2) a single-walled carbon nano-tube-containing composition.
