Synthesis of Single Walled Carbon Nanotubes Using Cobalt Grafted on MCM-41 Catalysts
In this work single walled carbon nanotubes (SWNT) have been synthesized by high pressure CO disproportionation using cobalt grafted on MCM-41 by means of grafting method employing cobalt (II) acetylacetonate. The reduction temperature of the metal species of these catalysts and their physical properties characterized by XRD, nitrogen physisoption and temperature reduction programmed are compar...
متن کاملThe Preparation of Bamboo-Structured Carbon Nanotubes with the Controlled Porosity by CVD of Acetylene on Co-Mo/MCM-41
Bamboo-structured carbon nanotubes are grown on Co-Mo/MCM-41 catalyst in the temperature range of 873-973 K by thermal chemical vapor deposition of acetylene. This study shows that the purified carbon nanotubes have open tips and the metals of the catalyst are not encapsulated. Thus, the bamboo-structure seems to grow from the base. Pore size distribution of the product is quite narrow and ...
متن کاملA PARAMETRIC STUDY ON THE GROWTH OF SINGLE-WALLED CARBON NANOTUBES OVER CO-MO/MGO NANOCATALYST IN A FLUIDIZED BED REACTOR BY CCVD METHOD
Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) with high yield and quality were synthesized using chemical vapor deposition (CVD) over Co-Mo/ MgO nanocatalyst in a fluidized bed reactor. Different parameters such as temperature, the ratio of hydrocarbon source to hydrogen, the flow rate of gas, growth time, the size of catalyst particles, heating rate, and the kind of hydrocarbon source were examined t...
متن کاملSynthesis, characterization, and stability of Fe-MCM-41 for production of carbon nanotubes by acetylene pyrolysis.
Fe-substituted MCM-41 molecular sieves with ca. 1, 2, and 3 wt % Fe were synthesized hydrothermally using different sources of colloidal silica (HiSil and Cab-O-Sil) and characterized by ICP, XRD, N2 physisorption, UV-vis, EPR, TPR, and X-ray absorption. Catalysts synthesized from Cab-O-Sil showed higher structural order and stability than those from HiSil. The local environment of Fe in the me...
متن کاملCharacterization of single-walled carbon nanotubes catalytically synthesized from alcohol
High purity single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) were synthesized from ethanol by catalytic CVD method. The yield of SWNTs was determined based on TGA complemented by Raman and TEM analyses. The effects of CVD reaction time and pre-reduction of catalytic metal on the yield and quality of synthesized SWNTs were investigated. The SWNT yield of more than 40% was achieved over the weight of zeoli...
