Carbon nanotube film synthesized from ethanol and its oxidation behavior in air

doi:10.1088/1674-1056/21/9/098103

Abstract In this paper, we propose an efficient way to synthesize carbon nanotube films using ferrocene and ethanol. The as-grown film is free-standing, semi-transparent, and of macro scale size. The tubes in the film are mostly single- or double-walled. The oxidation behavior of the film is studied via Raman spectroscopy, and the result indicates that the inner wall of the double-walled tube is effectively protected from oxidation by the outer wall.

Keywords: carbon nanotube film Raman spectroscopy oxidation
