Chengmin Jiang

Maybe you can try solvent NMP together with sonication.

Andrei Rogoza

Toluene C6H5CH3 is suitable solvent ( dispersion media) for fullerenes, graphene and other forms of carbon with sp2-hybridization.

Saman Gheytani

DMF is also a good solvent for dispersing of Carbon nanotubes. Applying long sonication would be useful for getting a stable dispersion.

Siva Kumar Reddy

Dear Kumar,

Carbon nanotubes are dispersed in polar solvents like chloroform,N-N dimethylfomamide so that we get good stable dispersion.

Narasimhan Ashwin Kumar

Thankyou for the comments.. i would try with these solvents... !!!
