Abstract
The present study focuses on the derivation of carbonaceous material from rich premixed propane/air mixture using a laminar flame burner. The presence of Nickel catalyst (Ni) and the effect of equivalence ratio on the synthesis of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were investigated. Samples were collected from the flame synthesized wire mesh and analyzed using a Field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM). FESEM imaging shows that the CNTs obtained were of the multi-walled type. The presence of nickel catalyst results in the production of CNTs and the rich equivalent ratio of φ = 2.2 produces the highest yield of CNT in terms of weight and coverage area on the wire mesh.
