Abstract
The present invention relates to a catalytic composition for the synthesis of carbon nanotubes, comprising an active catalyst and a catalytic support, the active catalyst comprising a mixture of iron and cobalt in any oxidation form and the catalytic support comprising exfoliated vermiculite.
Claims13
A polymeric composition comprising:
- a polymeric matrix;
- and
- carbon nanotubes, wherein the carbon nanotubes are dispersed in the polymer matrix and wherein the carbon nanotubes are obtained by decomposing a gaseous hydrocarbon on a catalytic composition, the catalytic composition comprising:
- an active catalyst, comprising a mixture of iron and cobalt in any oxidation form;
- and
- a catalytic support, comprising exfoliated vermiculite;
- wherein decomposing a gaseous hydrocarbon on the catalytic composition comprises the following steps:
- conditioning the catalytic composition under an inert atmosphere;
- contacting the catalytic composition with a gaseous carbon source;
- the polymeric composition comprising residues of the catalytic composition.
