Due to their outstanding electronic, optical and mechanical properties, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are studied extensively recently, but their poor dispersibility in solvent and bad compatibility with other materials critically limit their application, many approaches and methods for functionalization of CNTs have been reported to solve these problems. All kinds of methods to modification of CNTs with free radical reaction are reviewed in this paper, which include small molecules and macromolecules. Small molecular reaction include diazonium salts, initiator decompose free radicals, carbene free radicals, and nitrene free radicals. Macromolecules grafting include ATRP, RAFT, NMP, Ce(IV) ions initiation polymerizaiton, in situ bulk polymerization, solution polymerization, precipitation polymerization, emulsion polymerization, soap-free emulsion polymerization and so on. In this paper, the free radicals generated by other methods to functionalize CNTs are also reviewed briefly.
