Carbon Nanomaterial Production Via CCVD Method and its Corrosion Study

Production of carbon nanomaterials particularly CNTs with good quality and high yield is a challenging task. Various methods used for the production of CNTs include laser ablation, arc discharge method and catalytic chemical vapor deposition (CCVD). CCVD method is the well-recognized method for a large-scale production of CNTs but this requires optimization of various parameters such as reactor size, catalyst amount, gas flow rates, time of reaction, etc. to multiply yield of CNTs. The present work aimed at developing a simple CCVD setup for the production of CNTs with high yield. A product of CCVD experiments was dispersed in an epoxy resin to produce corrosion protection coatings for stainless steels.
