Disclosed are various modified carbon products that can form part of a modified carbon product and a polymer product that includes a polymer. One type of modified carbon product disclosed includes (a) a carbon product having at least one organic group directly bonded to the carbon product, and (b) at least bonded to the organic group. One ionic group, ionic group, or combinations thereof, and (c) at least one counterion group or counterionic group or combination thereof with at least one organic group, monomer group, or polymer group And comprising a ionic group and / or a counterionic group or counterionic group bonded to the ionic group. Also disclosed is a method for improving the dispersion of a carbon product in a polymer, the method comprising dispersing the modified carbon product described above to produce a polymer product.
