SYNTHESIS AND CHARACTERIZATION OF FUNCTIONALIZED CARBON NANOTUBES EMPLOYING COBALT NITRATE AND ACETONE BY USING SPRAY PYROLYSIS DEPOSITION TECHNIQUE
Recently, alcohols and ketones have been employed to sensitize CNT by CVD. A study has shown the importance of the chemical nature of those carbon precursors on the characteristics of the CNTs (carbon nanotubes) obtained. In the present work, we show the influence of the catalyst employed on the synthesis of functionalized multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) utilizing acetone as carbon source and cobalt nitrate has as catalyst.
