Abstract

ARC DISCHARGE method was utilized to synthesize carbon nanotubes ….. (CNTs). The arcing was carried out in air atmosphere in presence of amorphous alloy as catalyst. The current density was maintained constant during the experiment. The amorphous alloys used were CoFeB amorphous alloy and ZrCuNiAl amorphous alloy. Characterization of the samples produced indicates that the presence of CoFeB amorph...
