Abstract: A method for producing a carbon particle by a detonation method includes two steps. The first step is a step of disposing an explosive substance in the periphery of a raw material substance. The explosive substance has a detonation velocity of 6,300 m/s or more. The raw material substance contains an aromatic compound having not more than 2 nitro groups. The second step is a step of allowing the explosive substance to detonate.

Abstract: A production method of a carbon particle by a detonation method includes a step of disposing an explosive substance in a periphery of a raw material substance, and a step of subjecting the explosive substance to a detonation. The explosive substance is a liquid at normal temperature and normal pressure. The raw material substance contains an aromatic compound having 3 or more nitro groups.

Abstract: A complex molded body of carbon nanotubes includes a matrix and carbon nanotubes arranged in a given direction in the matrix. The matrix is at least one organic polymer selected from the group consisting of thermoplastic resin, thermosetting resin, rubber, and thermoplastic elastomer. The complex molded body is produced by a method comprising the step of: providing a composition that includes a matrix and carbon nanotubes; applying a magnetic field to the composition to arrange the carbon nanotubes in a given direction; and hardening the composition to produce a complex molded body. The complex molded body has excellent anisotropy in terms of electrical property, thermal property, and mechanical property.

Abstract: In order to produce a new substance having a diamond crystal structure, the following steps are taken in order. First, a graphite-like substance is prepared which contains boron (B), carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) as main elements. Then, the graphite-like substance is mixed with a metal powder to produce a mixture. Then, a pressure is applied to the mixture to produce a molded body, and then an explosion pressure is applied to the molded body.

Abstract: Acetylene can be polymerized into a polyacetylene by a solid-state polymerization reaction when it is compressed into a solid under a high pressure of, for example, 1 GPa or higher. The polyacetylene product is obtained in a bulky transparent form in contrast to conventional polyacetylenes in a fibrous form prepared by utilizing a Ziegler-Natta catalyst, and free from impurities because neither catalyst nor solvent is used in the reaction.
