Abstract

Carbon nanotubes are tubular nanomaterials formed by the coiling of layered graphite

which are widely used in many fields because of high mechanical strength

excellent conductivity

good biocompatibility

stable chemical property and large specific surface area. Chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method is one of the key technologies for the synthesis of carbon nanotubes

and has become the mainstream technology for large-scale synthesis of high-performance carbon nanotubes due to its controllability and high yield. Ni-based catalysts are widely used for methane cracking due to their high catalytic activity and product selectivity. The growth mechanisms of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) catalyzed by Ni-based catalysts for methane cracking and the regulation of MWCNTs structures by different types of Ni-based catalysts were summarized. Furthermore

the controllable growth of MWCNTs catalyzed by Ni-based catalysts for methane cracking was prospected

in order to provide guidance for the relevant research on methane cracking to prepare MWCNTs.
