Regulation and performance study of Co-Mo/Al2O3-MgO catalysts synthesized by continuous micro-impinging stream technology for multi-walled carbon nanotube growth
The synthesis efficiency and quality of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MW
CNTs) by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method are highly dependent on catalytic performances of catalysts. The conventional sol-gel method often suffers from insufficient precursor mixing
leading to metal particle agglomeration
which results in low yield and large diameter of multi-walled carbon nanotubes. The micro-impinging stream reactor was applied to the continuous synthesis of Co-Mo/Al

-MgO catalysts. Using ethylene as the carbon source
multi-walled carbon nanotubes were prepared by CVD method. The effects of impinging stream velocities and ethylene cracking temperatures on the carbon yields
tube diameter distributions and graphitization degrees of the multi-walled carbon nanotubes were systematically investigated. The results show that at the impinging stream velocity of 80 mL/min
the prepared catalyst has a specific surface area of 135 m
2
/g and exhibits superior reducibility (reduction peak temperature of 362.9 ℃ and hydrogen consumption of 2.91 mmol/g). This catalyst can catalyze the ethylene cracking at 660 ℃
achieving the yield of multi-walled carbon nanotubes to 6070%. The obtained multi-walled carbon nanotubes have a large specific surface area (262 m
2
/g) and a small average tube diameter ((9.79 ± 2.92) nm). This study will provide some reference for the design of catalysts with high catalytic performances and controllable synthesis of multi-walled carbon nanotubes by micro-impinging stream technology.
