Abstract: | With trace halide as a promoter in an iron sulfide catalyst, relatively perfect structural integrity double-walled carbon nanotubes (DWNTs) have been synthesized in large quantity and high yield by arc discharge method. Scanning electron microscope (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and Raman spectroscopy were used for structural characterization and yield determination. The results revealed that halide was a crucial factor for selectively synthesizing high yield DWNTs. The detailed experimental parameters were systematically investigated. The possible role of halide in growth of DWNTs was discussed as well. |
