Abstract
The highly flexible plasma system allows the independent flow control of plasma gas, carbonaceous feedstock and metal catalyst. Further important control parameters include current intensity and product quenching rate yielding in an excellent control of the thermal history of the carbon products. Temperature profiles measured along the reactive flow of carbon particles are presented, mapping time–temperature relations for typical operating conditions. In addition, the principle product families are presented. From the characteristics observed and NT product analysis, it is concluded that the AC plasma technology shows a significant potential for the continuous production of bulk quantities of carbon‐based nanotubes of controlled properties and novel tube‐like nanostructures.
