Synthesis of Carbon Nanocapsules and Nanotubes Using Fe-Doped Fullerene Nanowhiskers

Abstract: We synthesized iron-(Fe-)doped C 60 nanowhiskers (NWs) by applying the liquid-liquid interfacial precipitation method that employs a C 60 -saturated toluene solution and a solution of 2-propanol containing ferric nitrate nonahydrate (Fe(NO 3 ) 3 ·9H 2 O). Fe particles of 3-7 nm in diameter were precipitated in the NWs. By heating at 1173 K, the NWs were transformed into hollow and Fe 3 C-encapsulated carbon nanocapsules and carbon nanotubes.

“…The potential difference caused by corrosion drives galvanic current inside the metallic materials [1]. To decrease corrosion speed, some conventional methods were applied to control surface contact geometry, stabilizing bridge contacting conditions, providing appropriate material composition, and reducing potential when connecting different materials [2,3]. In addition, the material geometry ratio must be manipulated and to dissolute the current density to reduce the rusting speed [4,5].…”

“…The corrosive potential difference moves galvanic current in metallic materials. To slow down rusting process, several traditional methods used are adjusting geometrical surface contacts, maintaining good bridge conditions, keeping proper material composition, and decreasing material potential among different materials [1]. Also the geometrical area ratio of materials should be controlled for dissolution current density to slow down the rusting process [2].…”
