Abstract
We report in this communication the growth mechanism of multiwall carbon nanotubes during hydrothermal treatment of carbon soot at 800°C and 100 MPa. High-resolution electron microscopy (HRTEM) study reveals the formation of multiwall carbon nanotubes made of a hollow core enclosed in well-ordered concentric graphitic layers after hydrothermal treatment.
