TECHNOLOGY FOCUS - ORGANIC CHEMISTRY - Preparation: No preparation method is given. Preferred Composition: The composition contains (A) (0.001-10 wt.%), the carbon nanotube (0.01-5 wt.%), and the solvent based on the total weight of aromatic imide-based dispersant, carbon nanotube, and solvent. Preferred Components: The carbon nanotube is mixed at a weight ratio of 1:0.001 to 1:10 with the aromatic imide-based dispersant. 8. The carbon nanotube is a single-wall carbon nanotube, a double-wall carbon nanotube, a triple-wall carbon nanotube, a quadruplewall carbon nanotube, a carbon nanohorn, and/or a carbon nanofiber. The solvent is aqueous based solvents; alcohols; ketones; ethyleneglycols; propyleneglycols; amides; pyrrolidones; hydroxyesters; sulfoxides; lactones; anilines; hydrocarbons; halogenated solvents; aromatic solvents; and/or glycol esters, preferably water, methanol, ethanol, isopropyl alcohol, propyl alcohol, butanol, terpineol, acetone, methylethyl ketone, ethyl isobutyl ketone, methylisobutyl ketone, ethyleneglycol, ethyleneglycol methylether, ethyleneglycol mono-n-propylether, propyleneglycol, propyleneglycol methylether, propyleneglycol ethylether, propyleneglycol butylether, propyleneglycol propylether, dimethylformamide, dimethylacetoamide; N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP), N-ethylpyrrolidone, dimethylsulfoxide, gamma -butyrolactone, lactic acid methyl ester, lactic acid ethyl ester, beta -methoxyisobutyric acid methyl ester, and alpha -hydroxy isobutyric acid methyl ester, aniline, N-methylaniline, hexane; chloroform; toluene; propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate. Preferred Method: In the method, dispersing is accomplished by mixing using an apparatus including an ultrasonicator, a homogenator, a spiral mixer, a planetary mixer, a disperser, or a blending mixer. The casting is accomplished using a coating technique comprising spin coating, electrophoretic deposition, or inkjet printing. EXAMPLE - 2-(2-(2-(2-(2-(2-(2-(2-Methoxy-ethoxy)-ethoxy)-ethoxy)-ethoxy)-ethoxy)-ethoxy)-ethoxy)-ethylamine (15.3 g), 3,4,9,10-pherylene-tetracarboxylic anhydride (4 g), imidazole (1.9 g), and zinc acetate (0.4 g) were combined and reacted at 160 degrees C for 16 hours in an argon atmosphere. The addition of 6N hydrochloric acid (aqueous) (60 ml) and ethanol (60 ml) and the extraction with dichloromethane were conducted sequentially. The extract was purified to afford 2,9-bis-(2-(2-(2-(2-(2-(2-(2-(2-methoxy-ethoxy)-ethoxy)-ethoxy)-ethoxy)-ethoxy)-ethoxy)-ethoxy)-ethyl)-anthra(2,1,9-def;6,5,10-d'e'f')diisoquinoline-1,3,8,10-tetraone as a reddish solid (9.2 g, 82%).
