Abstract

Multiwall carbon nanotubes have been prepared by catalytic chemical vapor deposition (CCVD) method in high yield using various metals supported on different supports. Measurements by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) revealed the presence of high quality nanotubes on each catalyst, however, comparing the different catalysts in nanotube production it can be stated that beyond metals, the support also affects both the quality and the quantity of nanotubes.
