SYNTHESIS OF THIN WALL MULTI-WALLED CARBON NANOTUBES BY CATALYTIC DECOMPOSITION OF HYDROCARBON USING METALLOPHTHALOCYANINE AS CATALYST

摘要

Temperature dependence on synthesis of carbon nanotube by thermal catalytic decomposition of hydrocarbon was investigated. Benzene, thiophene, and iron(III)phthalocyanine are used for synthesis. As a result, the thickness of 20 nm, 5 to 10 layers solid structured carbon nanotube was obtained.
