Popis: In nanoscience, nanotechnology is applied to various technologies, and research is actively being conducted. As the application of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) in various fields increases, efforts have been made to develop dispersion and functionalization technologies. In order to effectively use MWCNT nanofluids, it is most important to solve the problem of dispersion. In this study, MWCNTs were improved in dispersibility and functionalized through various chemical and mechanical treatments. In addition, MWCNTs aggregation was alleviated by using cellulose nanocrystal (CNC) as a dispersant. The processing results of MWCNTs and CNC were analyzed through transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and the dispersion was characterized by UV–Vis spectroscopy. The addition of CNC to MWCNTs has been confirmed to have high dispersibility and improved stability compared to untreated MWCNTs, and this effect affects the quality of the machine.
