Influence of tungsten on the carbon nanotubes growth by CVD process

The effect of tungsten (W) on the growth of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) using the chemical vapour deposition (CVD) process over a metal Fe-W catalyst incorporated into a silica matrix is reported. A W molar content in Fe/SiO2 up to 10% was studied. The incorporation of only 2% of W substan...
