Title:
CARBON NANOTUBE AGGREGATE AND PROCESS FOR PRODUCING THE SAME
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2006/052009
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A process for producing a carbon nanotube aggregate which comprises: a step in which fine metal particles having a given particle diameter are formed on a substrate; a step in which the fine metal particles are heated in a reducing atmosphere to a given temperature of 300-400°C to reduce the surface; a step in which the fine metal particles are heated in a reaction furnace to a given reaction temperature; and a step in which during the period from initiation of the heating of the fine metal particles to initiation of the growth of carbon nanotubes, an organic-compound vapor is introduced into the reaction furnace so that the time period in which the temperature of the fine metal particles exceeds 450°C is within 600 seconds to thereby grow carbon nanotubes on the fine metal particles.
