  • the CNTs having poor initial dispersibility have poor final dispersibility when the resin is melted in a shaver shaver state when it is kneaded with a twin-screw kneader or the like and it is difficult to take a share, for example, when polyethylene resin or the like is used. Further, when used in water or a solvent system, this tendency appears remarkably, and it is an extremely important evaluation method in evaluating the dispersibility of a material used for kneading having a relatively small shear.
  • the amount of CNT particles scattered (the amount of inhalable dust composed of particles of 10 ⁇ m or less) can be 0.2 mg / m 3 or less, and the risk of environmental pollution can be extremely reduced. Furthermore, CNT granules having excellent initial dispersibility can be obtained. Reducing the amount of inhalable dust is related to the hardness of the granulated product, but even with the same hardness, after granulating with a low-concentration water-soluble resin liquid as a binder, additional granulation is added with a rolling granulator. This is probably the result of sizing.

In this way, simplification is achieved in many aspects, and energy and labor can be saved.
