Method of solubilizing single-walled carbon nanotubes in organic solutions

A solution comprising single-walled carbon nanotubes reacted with an amine or alkylaryl amine having a formula RNH2, or R1R2NH wherein R, R1 and R2=—(CH2)nCH3 where n=9-50 or R, R1 and R2=—(C6H1) (CH2)nCH3 where n=5-50, said nanotubes being dissolved in a solvent selected from a group consisting of chloroform, dichloromethane, benzene, toluene, chlorobenzene, dichlorobenzene, dichlorocarbene, ether, tetrahydrofuran, trichlorobenzene, methylene chloride, diethylene glycol, dimethyl ether, carbon disulfide, tetrachlorocarbon, pyridine, quinoline, dichloroethane, diethyl ether, xylene, naphthalene, nitrobenzene and mixtures thereof.
