METHOD FOR PRODUCING WATER DISPERSION OF CARBON NANOPARTICLES FROM SHUNGIT Russian patent published in 2018 - IPC C01B32/15 B01J13/00 B82B3/00 B82Y40/00 

FIELD: chemistry.

SUBSTANCE: first the shungite rock is chopped. The obtained shungite powder is poured with water at a ratio of the weight of the shungite powder to the mass of water of 1: 2 and left to stand for three days, after which it is filtered. The remaining powder of shungite is dried and dispersed in water using grinding bodies with a diameter of 1-3 mm at a ratio of the mass of the shungite powder to the mass of water and the mass of grinding bodies 1: 4: 3 for 60 minutes. Then the mixture is filtered, the shungite powder is dried. Then dispersing and filtering the shungite powder is carried out in water by ultrasound in the ratio of the mass of the shungite powder to the mass of water 1:20, a frequency of 22 kHz and power of 1000 W for 35 minutes. The resulting water dispersion of carbon nanoparticles is centrifuged for 15 minutes at 10000 rpm.

EFFECT: increasing the stability of water dispersion of carbon nanoparticles during storage.
