title: Dispersing as-prepared single-walled carbon nanotube powders with linear conjugated polymers.
abstract: Suitably modified linear conjugated poly(arylene ethynylene)s are able to assist effective debundling and dispersion of crude as-prepared single-walled carbon nanotube powders in organic solvents, the dispersion of which is effected via a surface coating mechanism and, to some extent, in a size-selective fashion.
