Kovalenttisesti sidotuilla fullereeneilla funktionalisoidut hiilinanoputket, menetelmä ja laite niiden tuottamiseksi sekä niiden komposiitit

摘要

The present invention relates to covalently bonded fullerene-functionalized carbon nanotubes (CBFFCNTs), a method and an apparatus for their production and to their end products. CBFFCNTs are carbon nanotubes with one or more fullerenes or fullerene based molecules covalently bonded to the nanotube surface. They are obtained by bringing one or more catalyst particles, carbon sources and reagents together in a reactor.
