STUDY OF NANOTUBES SYNTHESIS FROM DIFFUSION FLAME

Synthesis carbon nanotubes using diffusion flame is a kind of novel technique. The basic principle of the method was introduced, and the influence of parameters, such as flame, matrix materials, time, etc. on the formation and morphology of carbon nanotubes was discussed. The experiments showed that carbon nanotubes could be obtained without seed, called autocatalysis or unseeded catalysis.
