The present invention relates to a method for preparing
neodymium-carbon-nanotube and a process for preparing
1,4-cis-polybutadiene utilizing the same and more particularly,
neodymium-carbon-nanotube. Neodymium is introduced by coordination with
carboxylic acid, which is formed on the surface of carbon nanotube. In
1,3-butadiene polymerization with the neodymium-catalyst comprising the
neodymium-carbon nanotube, a particular halogen compound, and a
particular organometallic compound in an appropriate ratio, high 1,4-cis
polybutadiene having molecular weight of 10,000 to 2,000,000 is produced,
which exhibits excellent mechanical properties such as elasticity and
durability.
