Abstract
Carbon nanotubules were produced in a large amount by catalytic decomposition of acetylene in the presence of various supported transition metal catalysts. The influence of different parameters such as the nature of the support, the size of active metal particles and the reaction conditions on the formation of nanotubules was studied. The process was optimized towards the production of nanotubules having the same diameters as the fullerene tubules obtained from the arc-discharge method. The separation of tubules from the substrate, their purification and opening were also investigated.
