Temperature effect on the formation of catalysts for growth of carbon nanofibers

Helical nanocoiled and microcoiled carbon fibers as effective catalyst supports for electrooxidation of methanol

“…5A shows the C1s XPS spectra. In each case, the C1s spectrum can be deconvoluted into six separate peaks [23,24]. The dominant peak at about 284.8 eV is assigned to the sp 2 graphitized carbon, while the peak at around 285.6 eV originates from defects on the graphitic structure.…”

Carbon nanofibers synthesized by pyrolysis of chloroform and ethanol mixture

“…Many CNFs grew from a single catalyst and the CNFs were porous, curly, and not well crystalline. These CNFs are classified as turbostratic CNFs (TSCNFs) [31]. It is believed that the amount of chlorine involved in the reaction affects the growth mechanism of the CNFs [33,41].…”

Non-enzymatic glucose sensor based on Au nanoparticles decorated ternary Ni-Al layered double hydroxide/single-walled carbon nanotubes/graphene nanocomposite

“…3). In the C1s spectrum, the dominant peak at about 284.6 eV was assigned to the sp 2 graphitized carbon [52,53], while the other two peaks centered at about 286.2 and 288.7 eV were attributed to carbon atoms bonded with oxygen atoms (e.g. -C-OH groups and >C¼O).…”
