Abstract: A thermoelectric conversion module includes a base material having heat insulation properties and carbon nanotube yarn that is helically wound around the base material, P-type parts and N-type parts are alternately arranged and are series-connected in an extension direction of the carbon nanotube yarn, one side part of a helix formed by the carbon nanotube yarn is formed as a heat reception part, and the other side part across the base material from the one side part is formed as a heat dissipation part, lengths of the P-type parts and lengths of the N-type parts are shorter than a length of a one-turn portion of the helix, and the P-type parts and the N-type parts are arranged such that respective one end parts are included in the heat reception part and respective other end parts are included in the heat dissipation part.

Abstract: Applicability to a composite material with high purity and high strength, and a material requiring high conductivity or high thermal conductivity is enhanced. The present invention relates to a multi-walled carbon nanotube having two or more tubes of a graphene sheet where carbon atoms are arranged in a hexagonal honeycomb form, coaxially, wherein a diameter of an outermost wall based on observation of an image by a transmission electron microscope is 3 nm or more and 15 nm or less, and a length based on observation of an image of a scanning electron microscope is 1.0 mm or more, an aggregate of multi-walled carbon nanotubes and a method for preparing the multi-walled carbon nanotube.

Abstract: To transfer slurry without a binder smoothly in each transition between a dewatering process, a water squeezing process, and a drying process during formation of the slurry into a sheet-like shape through these processes. A dewatering process unit P1 conveys slurry while removing moisture in the slurry. A water squeezing process unit P2 conveys the resultant slurry while squeezing water from the slurry by rolling the slurry. A drying process unit P3 conveys the resultant slurry while drying the slurry by heating the slurry. The conveyance speed of the slurry in the water squeezing process is lower than the conveyance speed of the slurry in the dewatering process. The conveyance speed of the slurry in the drying process is lower than the conveyance speed of the slurry in the water squeezing process.
