Nanotube surfactant design : The dispersion of SWNTs by designed surfactants based on water‐soluble pyrene derivatives is reported. Significantly, nanotubes with small diameters are depleted in the supernatant after centrifugation, presenting the foundation for future nanotube separation by selective dispersion.
