Gels of carbon nanotubes and a nonionic surfactant prepared by mechanical grinding Original Research Article

Mixtures of carbon nanotubes (CNTs), including multi-wall CNTs and single-wall CNTs, and polyoxyethylene(12) tridecyl ether (POETE), a nonionic surfactant and a fluid at room temperature, became gels after mechanical grinding. The heavily entangled multi-
