CA 2459410

There is provided a method for the enhanced production of fellurenes, nanotubes and nanoparticles. The method relies upon the provision of a hydrocarbon liquid which is converted by a suitable energy source to a synthesis gas such as acetone, ethylene, methane or carbon monoxide, the synthesis gas(es) forming the precursors need for fullerene, nanotube or nanoparticle production. The nanotubes formed by the method described are in general terms shorter and wider than conventionally produced nanotubes. An improved apparatus for production of the fullerenes and nanocarbons is also disclosed wherein a moveable contactor is attached to a first electrode with a sealable chamber, and is spaced from the second electrode such that an electric arc can pass between them.

La présente invention concerne un procédé renforçant la production de fullerènes, de nanotubes et de nanoparticules. Le procédé implique de disposer d'un hydrocarbure liquide qui est converti par une source d'énergie appropriée en un gaz de synthèse tel que l'acétone, l'éthylène, le méthane ou le monoxyde de carbone, les gaz de synthèse formant précurseurs nécessaires à la production de fullerènes, de nanotubes ou de nanoparticules. Les nanotubes obtenus selon le procédé de l'invention sont généralement plus courts et plus larges que les nanotubes produits selon les procédés conventionnels. L'invention concerne également un modèle perfectionné d'appareil destiné à la production de fullerènes et de carbones nanoporeux et utilisant un contacteur mobile fixé à une première électrode dans une chambre étanche, tenu à une certaine distance de la seconde électrode de façon qu'un arc électrique puisse passer de l'une à l'autre. .
