Purification of carbon nanotubes synthesized by catalytic decomposition of methane using bimetallic Fe-Co catalysts supported on MgO

This work reports the synthesis of carbon nanotubes by catalytic decomposition of methane using bimetallic Fe-Co catalysts supported on MgO. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) results show the as-prepared carbon nanotubes are multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) with diameter in the range of 1...
