TLDR
In this article, the thermodynamic properties of filamentous carbon formed from CO and CH4 on iron and nickel catalysts have been determined in the temperature range 650-1000 K. The presence of carbide intermediates has been demonstrated both by magnetic measurements and by temperature-programmed hydrogenation.

Carbon Nanofibers: Catalytic Synthesis and Applications

TL;DR: A review on the growth of nanofibers using metallic particles as a catalyst to precipitate the graphitic carbon can be found in this paper, where the authors summarize some of the earlier literature that has contributed greatly to understand the nucleation and growth of carbon carbon and nanotubes and describe in detail recent progress to control the fiber surface structure, texture, and growth into mechanically strong agglomerates.

Carbon Deposition in Steam Reforming and Methanation

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the causes of deactivation of supported metal catalysts by carbon or coke formation, and found that deactivation can occur due to fouling of the metal surface, blockage of catalysts pores and voids, and actual physical disintegration of the catalyst support.

Mechanisms of carbon formation on nickel-containing catalysts.

TL;DR: A complex dependence of rate upon temperature is observed in many systems and different explanations for the existence of a rate maximum and an apparent negative activation energy are discussed in this paper, although other effects may influence the magnitude of the observed activation energy.

Hydrogenation of surface carbon on alumina-supported nickel

TL;DR: In this article, four types of carbon were observed to form on an alumina-supported nickel methanation catalyst on exposure to carbon monoxide at 550 ± 50 K. In order of their reactivity toward hydrogen, the carbon species may be classified as: chemisorbed carbon atoms (α), bulk nickel carbide, amorphous carbon (β), and crystalline elemental carbon.
