Effect of alignment on adsorption characteristics of self-oriented multi-walled carbon nanotube arrays

The adsorption characteristics of self-oriented multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) arrays are examined from N2 (-196 °C) adsorption measurements. The arrays were synthesized in a laboratory by in situ chemical vapour deposition of iron or cobalt phthalocyanines at 880 and 950 °C, under otherwise c...

Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) Cobalt phthalocyanines Iron phthalocyanines Multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) arrays Adsorption Arrays Iron compounds Measurement theory Morphology Nitrogen compounds Scanning electron microscopy Transmission electron microscopy Carbon nanotubes The adsorption characteristics of self-oriented multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) arrays are examined from N2 (-196 °C) adsorption measurements. The arrays were synthesized in a laboratory by in situ chemical vapour deposition of iron or cobalt phthalocyanines at 880 and 950 °C, under otherwise constant conditions, in an attempt to obtain different morphological structures. For both precursors, increasing the temperature leads to MWCNT arrays with lower Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) surface area and total pore volume, though the effect is more pronounced for those arising from the iron-based compound. Despite this, precursor yields of individual nanotubes of larger diameter, higher BET area and total pore volume characterize the resulting arrays compared to those arising from cobalt phthalocyanine for the same temperatures. As evidenced by SEM and TEM images, the arrays synthesized from iron phthalocyanine at 880 °C show better vertical alignment and denser structures than those obtained from this compound at 950 °C, and also from cobalt phthalocyanine at both temperatures. Further ultrasonication of the arrays produced from the iron compound brings about a significant reduction in their adsorption capacity, attributable to the pronounced disarrangement of the resulting structures. The present results demonstrate that the alignment of MWCNT arrays plays a crucial role in their N2 adsorption characteristics. © 2006 IOP Publishing Ltd.
