Abstract: Modifying the iron-aluminum catalyst with molybdenum oxide affords a marked increase in the yield of carbon nanotubes from 1,3-butadiene diluted with hydrogen. The optimum catalyst composition is 6.5% MoO3-52% Fe2O3-Al2O3. With this catalyst, it is possible to obtain over 100 g of carbon nanotubes per gram of catalyst in a reactor fitted with a McBain balance. Replacing expensive 1,3-butadiene with the cheaper commercial propane-butane mixture (80 mol % propane + 20 mol % butane) leads to a sharp decrease in the nanotube yield because of the lower reactivity of the latter. Based on the concept of the catalytic decomposition of hydrocarbons and the formation of nanosized carbon materials via the carbide cycle mechanism, a new, efficient, CoO-MoO3-Fe2O3-Al2O3 catalyst has been developed. The enhancement of the activity of the MoO3-Fe2O3-Al2O3 catalyst by promoting it with cobalt oxide is achieved without a change in the rate-limiting step of the process. The design of a continuous reactor for carbon nanotube synthesis is suggested. The characteristics of the resulting nanotubes are presented.
