Which growth mechanism does the CNT follows during its growth?
Which growth mechanism does the CNT follows during its growth? During the growth process, the SiOx nanoparticle remained solid, thus we consider that the growth follows a vapor–solid–solid (VSS) mechanism. We also observed that SiOx is effective, whereas Si and SiC nanoparticles are ineffective for CNT growth. What is the proposed growth mechanism in the CVD synthesis of carbon nanotubes? The growth mechanism of CNTs suggests that the Fe2O3/Al2O3 precatalyst is reduced to Fe/Al2O3 during the synthesis process using the products of LPG decomposition, and the tip-growth mechanism is suggested. What is the main process in making the carbon nanotubes?...
