Template Synthesis of Carbon Nanofibers Containing Linear Mesocage Arrays
نویسندگان
چکیده
Carbon nanofibers containing linear mesocage arrays were prepared via evaporation induced self-assembly method within AAO template with an average channel diameter of about 25 nm. The TEM results show that the mesocages have an elongated shape in the transversal direction. The results of N2 adsorption-desorption analysis indicate that the sample possesses a cage-like mesoporous structure and the average mesopore size of the sample is about 18 nm.

Dry adhesives from carbon nanofibers grown in an open ethanol flame
Based on magnetic-field-assisted growth of carbon nanofibers in an open ethanol flame we fabricated arrays of carbon nanofibers with different degrees of orientation. Inspired by the dry adhesive system of geckos we investigated the adhesive properties of such carbon nanofiber arrays with ordered and random orientation. AFM-based force spectroscopy revealed that adhesion force and energy rise l...

A novel method for the direct fabrication of arrays of micropatterned polymeric and carbon nanofiber structures on any substrate is developed. First SU-8, an epoxy-based negative photoresist, is electrospun under optimized conditions to produce a layer of polymeric nanofibers. Next, this nanofibrous mat is micropatterned using photolithography, and finally, pyrolysis produces ordered arrays of ...

متن کاملMicroreactors for Gas Liquid Solid reactions – Novel Catalyst Support Based on Carbon Nanofibers
Introduction Currently, there is tremendous interest in the field of micro-structured gas-liquid contactors containing modified catalytic coatings on its micro-structured internals (Fig. 1) [1]. The most recent trend in the design of three-phase catalytic microreactors focuses on the use of structured catalyst supports, i.e. that the catalyst has to be deposited on a rigid, orderly arranged sup...
متن کاملHollow carbon nanofiber-encapsulated sulfur cathodes for high specific capacity rechargeable lithium batteries.
Sulfur has a high specific capacity of 1673 mAh/g as lithium battery cathodes, but its rapid capacity fading due to polysulfides dissolution presents a significant challenge for practical applications. Here we report a hollow carbon nanofiber-encapsulated sulfur cathode for effective trapping of polysulfides and demonstrate experimentally high specific capacity and excellent electrochemical cyc...
