In the present study, carbon-nanotube-polyurethane foams were synthesized by adding (0.02, 0.1, and 0.3 wt%) carbon nanotubes during the polymerization reaction between polyol and isocyanate liquids. After the synthesis process, the microstructural cell morphology of the carbon-nanotube-polyurethane foams, based on the amount of carbon nanotubes, was observed using field emission scanning electron microscopy. To evaluate the mechanical characteristics of the carbon-nanotube-polyurethane foams, temperature-dependent (20°C, −90°C, and −163°C) compressive tests were performed, and the results wer

The absence of large-scale carbon nanotube synthesis technology (which we define as being of the order of 10 000 tonnes per plant per year) is limiting research and development activities across the sector.

In this work, multi-walled carbon nanotubes were synthesized on alumina-supported iron, cobalt, or nickel catalysts by catalytic chemical vapour deposition in a 0.5 kg h–1 FBCVD reactor, using ethylene as a carbon source.

Abstract:
The influence of morphology of the support particles upon the nickel-catalyzed decomposition of methane into carbon nanotubes and hydrogen was explored using a thermogravimetric apparatus. High carbon nanotube yield was attained by the Ni catalysts supported on the glycothermally synthesized ZrO2 and Er3Ga5O12 particles, which had spherical shapes. Quite high carbon yield was also obtained by the Ni catalyst supported on spherical Al2O3 particles (Nanophase Tech. Corp.). It was concluded that the most important factor governing the carbon yield is the morphology of the catalyst support, which

AbstractSince their discovery by Iijima in 1991 [1], carbon nanotubes have sparked unwavering interest among researchers all over the world. This is due to the unique properties of carbon nanotubes (CNTs). Carbon nanotubes have excellent mechanical and electrical properties with high chemical and thermal stability. In addition, carbon nanotubes have a very large surface area and are hollow inside. This gives a very broad spectrum of nanotube applications, such as in combination with polymers as polymer composites in the automotive, aerospace or textile industries. At present, many methods of n

Abstract:
Following the discovery of a large scale synthesis of fullerenes, the existence of the related carbon nanotubes was suggested by high resolution electron microscopy (HREM). Larger scale syntheses of these nanotube-rich materials has now been reported and has sparked interest worldwide. Because the HREM technique essentially observes the projection of a three dimensional object onto a two-dimensional plane, the three dimensional shape of the object is usually not apparent in typical HREM images. However, as we report here, by rotating along the axis of single carbon nanotube, and recording the

Since the first observation of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) in 1991, their synthesis techniques has been extensively investigated. The chemical vapor deposition (CVD) process have attracted much attention because of both their versatility and easy large scale production for CNTs . This paper is focused on a catalytic CVD-based method for synthesis of whisker multiwalled carbon nanotubes (WMWCNTs). The new type of carbon nanotube is similar to the whisker. The morphology of the WMWCNTs are very different from traditional carbon nanotubes prepared by traditional chemical vapor deposition process. The

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are always produced under a reductive ambient with hydrogen present using the chemical vapor deposition method. Oxidative media, such as carbon dioxide and oxygen, could damage the tubular structures by opening the nanotube ends or etching the tube walls. Here we report the synthesis of aligned defective, but clean, CNTs in the presence of water vapor. The tube walls were found broken as well as the tube ends. CNTs with a large amount of exposed broken sites on their tube walls have potential applications in many areas such as energy storage.

Y-branching multiwalled carbon nanotubes with a bamboolike structure were grown by chemical vapor deposition from a C–H–N gas system when B2O3 and Ti was supplied. Transmission electron microscopy images reveal that these novel junctions contain a tube branched into two tubes with nearly the same diameter. In addition, the tube walls show perpendicularly stacked graphite planes, which take on a bamboolike structure. The influence of preparation conditions on the structure of these carbon nanotubes is discussed. This novel structure may offer promising application for nanotube-based composites.

To control the packing density of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and the number of graphene layers, carbon nanotube/graphene composites are directly grown on cobalt (Co) catalysts-coated nickel foam by one-step ambient pressure chemical vapor deposition (CVD) at different temperatures and times. The carbon nanotube/graphene composites grown by one-step CVD at 850°C for 10 min possess the highest specific capacitance. Furthermore, a lower growing temperature leads to a higher packing density of CNTs and a smaller number of layers of graphene. A shorter growing time also leads to a smaller number of la
