Abstract

Single wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) without amorphous carbon coating were prepared by thermally decomposing acetylene (C₂H₂) at the temperature range 750-1200 °C in a floating iron catalyst system. The C₂H₂ partial pressure was controlled to make a carbon supply limiting growth of SWNTs. The higher reaction temperature above 1100 °C seemed not to favor the SWNT production due to the quick thermal decomposition of C₂H₂.
