Journal ArticleDOI
Nucleation and growth of carbon deposits from the nickel catalyzed decomposition of acetylene
TL;DR: In the presence of a nickel catalyst, acetylene decomposed to form carbonaceous solids with filamentary, amorphous, or laminar form as discussed by the authors, and parameters controlling the type of deposit have been established.
Journal ArticleDOI
Formation of filamentous carbon from iron, cobalt and chromium catalyzed decomposition of acetylene
TL;DR: In this article, the formation of filamentous carbon from iron, cobalt and chromium catalyzed decomposition of acetylene has been studied by controlled atmosphere electron microscopy and an inverse dependence of catalyst particle size with growth rate was found, the coefficient of which is also inversely proportional to temperature.
Journal ArticleDOI
The production and properties of filamentous carbon
TL;DR: In this article, the surface areas of carbon filaments were measured by adsorption of radioactive xenon at −196°C and 2°48 g · cm −3, indicating that a significant amount of catalyst metal is retained in the filaments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Controlled atmosphere electron microscopy studies of graphite gasification—3. The catalytic influence of molybdenum and molybdenum trioxide
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of temperature and particle size on channel propagation rates have been quantitatively evaluated and intercalation of MoO 3 is suggested as playing a role in the exfoliation of graphite sheets.
