GWU team demonstrates one-pot process for optimized synthesis of controlled CNTs from CO2; coupling cement and C2CNT

Green Car Congress

In 2015 we demonstrated that specific transition metals at the cathode, such as Ni, Co, Cu and Fe, act as nucleation points for high yield carbon nanotube growth in molten carbonates. Addition of up to 50 mol% Na 2 CO 3 to a Li 2 CO 3 electrolyte decreases electrolyte costs and improves conditions for intercalation in Na-ion CNT anodes.
