Flash-Ignited Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotubes
Composition: MWCNTs 48 wt%, Fe Nanoparticles 23 wt%, Amorphous Carbon 23 wt%
Flash-Ignited Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotubes are produced by alcohol pyrolysis using ferrocene as a catalyst in a floating reactor. They consist of thin-diameter multi-walled carbon nanotubes, amorphous carbon, and approximately 23 wt% Fe nanoparticles. These nanotubes are highly reactive and can be ignited by a household camera flash, making them unique for specialized applications across research and industry.
