Abstract
A carbon nanotube aggregate and a method for forming a carbon nanotube aggregate are provided. The carbon nanotube aggregate can be formed by treating carbon nanotubes with fluorine gas and sintering the resulting fluorinated carbon nanotubes. A carbon nanotube aggregate can be formed which does not contain a binder or resin matrix.
Claims15
A method for forming a carbon nanotube aggregate, comprising
- (1) modifying multiple carbon nanotubes with fluorine, and
- (2) sintering the multiple carbon nanotubes modified with fluorine.
A carbon nanotube aggregate made by binding multiple carbon nanotubes to one another.
