Outline of Final Research Achievements

To understand surfaces of nanomaterials academically, we selected carbon nanotubes (CNT) as the model substance and investigated the reference materials (standard isotherms) necessary to characterize the specific surface areas and the pore structures. In terms of flat surfaces and surface compositions, single-walled and multi-walled CNTs were inspected as well as diverse carbon materials. We obtained the finding on surface flatness by their N2 isotherms from the extremely low relative pressure, and successfully analyzed the surface compositions using multiple characterization methods. Thus we found out that multi-walled CNTs (VGCF) and graphitized CB, possessing flatter surfaces and fewer surface functional groups, are suitable reference materials for as-grown CNTs. Additionally, N2 adsorption sites to CNT bundles were properly inspected. These findings are assets to accelerate researches to industrialize CNTs.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

カーボンナノチューブ(CNT)をモデル物質として、ナノ材料表面のより深い理解につながるガス吸着基準物質を選定できた。この基準物質を基に、as-grown CNTについて比表面積や細孔構造の精緻な評価が可能となる。CNTの実用化研究を進める上で、これらの表面に関連した評価は共通基盤として希求されており、CNT産業を大きく花開かせるために必須である。特にCNT粉体の品質管理やCNT糸、膜、バルク等の部材評価に大いに役立つ。また、本研究で得られた知見は他ナノカーボンやナノスケールの繊維状物質の表面を理解する上で重要な知見であり、ナノ材料科学の進展に寄与するものと期待される。
