One-step grown aligned bulk carbon nanotubes by chloride mediated chemical vapor deposition
We found the easy and efficient synthesis method of the vertically aligned ultralong multiwalled nanotubes using iron chloride powder.

| Summary: | We found the easy and efficient synthesis method of the vertically aligned ultralong multiwalled nanotubes using iron chloride powder. The
2.1
-
mm
-long bulk nanotubes can be grown by conventional thermal chemical vapor deposition on bare quartz surface with the single gas flow of acetylene for
20
min
. In addition to the high growth rate, the bulk of carbon nanotubes is easily spun into the yarn by pulling it out, and the present method also provides the coating ability with nanotubes as a new functionality of this nanomaterial. |
