Multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were synthesized by CVD on industrially manufactured highly crystalline vapor-grown carbon fibers (VGCFs). Two catalyst metals (Ni and Fe) and carbon precursor gases (C2H2and CO) were studied. The catalysts were deposited on the fibers by sputtering and experiments carried out in two different reactors. Samples were characterized by electron microscopy (SEM and TEM). Iron was completely inactive as catalyst with bothC2H2and CO for reasons discussed in the paper. The combination of Ni andC2H2was very active for secondary CNT synthesis, without any pretreatment of the fibers. The optimal temperature for CNT synthesis was750∘C, with total gas flow of 650 cm3min⁡−1ofC2H2,H2, and Ar in 1.0:6.7:30 ratio.

Smoke detection with multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs)/cement composites have been studied. Pellets of MWCNTs reinforced Portland cement have been casted with varying MWCNTs %. The DC transient studies depicted an increase in conductivity when exposed to smoke. Responsivity in the range 26-46% has been obtained under smoky environment based on MWCNTs % in the composites. Ionic conductivity increased with frequency at room temperature under ambient and smoky environments. In this paper, we also report fabrication technique of the pellets and the sensing mechanism is explained on the basis of ionic conductivity of the cementitious material in combination with the conductive carbon fibers present in the porous matrix of the cement.

In this study, non-irradiated and weathered multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) obtained through irradiation, were studied as adsorbents for BPA, both nanomaterials being characterized before and after the adsorption process. The objectives of our investigation were to compare the characteristics of non-irradiated and irradiated MWCNTs, to evaluate the adsorption capacity of BPA by pristine and irradiated MWCNTs and to determine the variation of the kinetic, sorption and thermodynamic parameters during sorption process using both sorbents.
