In summary, for the first time DWNT/polymer composites were synthesized by in situ NMP. Our block copolymer synthetic method allows elaborating well-dispersed CNT in various polymer matrices, as the first block is strongly interacting with the CNT surface. Such composites could also be used as compatibiliser to improve the dispersion of CNT in different industrially produced polymer matrices.
