Abstract
Properties of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) obtained by the floating catalyst CVD method using ethyl alcohol and coal (anthracite and semi-anthracite) particles are investigated. Structural and vibrationalcharacteristics of synthesis products are determined. It is revealed that enrichment of the reaction mixture by anthracite particles increases the concentrations of CO and CH4 in the reaction zone, which contributes to the growth of the SWCNTs. A comparison of the Raman spectra of the samples shows an increase in the content of small-diameter semiconductor SWCNTs, whereas a set of chirality indices of the resulting nanotubes remains unchanged.
