Synthesis of Carbon Nanotubes using Laboratory Electric Bunsen Burner
Abstract: The synthesis of carbon nanotubes was carried out by CVD using electric Bunsen burner as the electrical source, at low temperature over cobalt nitrate supported on MgO using ethanol as the carbon source. The morphology, quality and degree of graphitization were analyzed by SEM, TEM and Raman spectroscopy. The TGA analysis with mild acid treatment revealed the burn off temperature of carbon nanotube to be at 392 to 695oC. The …
