The influence of physicochemical reaction parameters on the synthesis of multi-walled carbon nanotubes for use as catalyst supports.

Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and other shaped carbon nanomaterials (SCNMs) were synthesized by the floating catalyst chemical vapour deposition (CVD) method, using either ferrocene [1] as the catalyst at 2.5 or 5 wt.%, or a synthesized heteroatom-containing ferrocene derivative, in toluene...
