using c2h2, 112 and as gases at 550'c, carbon nanotubes were fabricated on the surfaces of twosubstrates coated by nano thin layers of metal catalysts by dc magnetron sputtering. aystamless steel andfe/cteal, by thermal chemical vapor deposition (tcvd) the surface properties of the substrates wereparticularly investigated, and the effect of treatment of the substrates on the cnt's growth is cri...

the lack of complete understanding of the substrate effects on carbon nanotubes (cnts) growth poses a lot oftechnical challenges. here, we report the direct growth of nanostructures such as the cnts on stainless steel 304and brass substrates using thermal chemical vapor deposition (tcvd) process with c2h2 gas as carbon sourceand hydrogen as supporting gas mixed in ar gas flow. we used an especi...

Explicit expressions have been derived for momentum and thermal boundary-layer thickness of the laminar, uniform stagnation flows characteristic of highly convective chemical vapor deposition pedestal reactors. Expressions for the velocity and temperature profiles within the boundary layers have also been obtained. The results indicate that, to leading order, the momentum boundary-layer thickne...

nanoporous graphene which is used as nanosorbent was synthesized by chemical vapor deposition method via porous zinc oxide nanocatalyst. the reaction was carried out using methane as the carbon source and hydrogen as the carrier gas in a ratio of 4:1 at the temperature ranging 900-1050°c for 2-50 min. the product was characterized by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscop...

Since the introduction of electron beam (EB) physical vapour deposition (PVD) thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) and their application to moving components in the hot gas stream, erosion has become a prime concern. EB PVD TBCs, due to their unique columnar microstructure are far more strain tolerant than their plasma sprayed (PS) counter parts and can thus be used under more exacting operating con...

chemical vapor deposition (cvd) is one of the most popular methods for producing carbon nanotubes (cnts). the growth rate of cnts based on cvd technique is investigated by using a numerical model based on finite volume method. inlet gas mixture, including xylene as carbon source and mixture of argon and hydrogen as carrier gas enters into a horizontal cvd reactor at atmospheric pressure. in thi...

the growth rate and uniformity of carbon nano tubes (cnts) based on chemical vapor deposition (cvd) technique is investigated by using a numerical model. in this reactor, inlet gas mixture, including xylene as carbon source and mixture of argon and hydrogen as  carrier gas enters into a horizontal cvd reactor at atmospheric pressure. based on the gas phase and surface reactions, released carbon...

in this research, graphene was synthesized by chemical vapor deposition (cvd) method in atmosphere pressure (14.7 psi). different functionalization method was used for oxidizing of graphene such as acid and alkaline treatments. the functionalized graphene (fg) was characterized by ftir and raman spectroscopy. nanofluid with water and different concentration (0.05, 0.15 and 0.25 wt %) of fg were...
