Popis: This study presents the results of a comprehensive investigation into the fabrication of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) employing chemical vapor deposition (CVD) technique, with nickel nanoparticles serving as crucial catalysts. These nanoparticles are synthesized via the reduction of oxide precursors using hydrogen and are strategically incorporated with ethanol vapor as the primary carbon source. The effectiveness and reproducibility of this synthesis method are thoroughly validated using advanced analytical techniques. Particularly noteworthy is the demonstrated ability to conduct the process at relatively low temperatures, not exceeding 500°C, which is of significant importance. Such precise control over synthesis conditions not only augurs well for the scalability of SWCNT production but also carries substantial implications for the advancement of nanomaterial synthesis methodologies.
