Abstract: A method using of electrostatic spraying or dispersing processes and techniques for depositing a particulate material onto the outside surfaces of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and CNT elongates consisting of the CNTs. The particulate material can include either or both particles and droplets, and the material can be an element, compound or composition, including polymers and thermoplastics. The particulate material is dispersed and induced with a static charge, while the CNT elongate is grounded.
