Article Synopsis
  • The study details a method for creating multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) with hydroxymethylene groups, synthesized using spray pyrolysis with toluene and ferrocene.
  • Hydroxymethylation was performed using varying amounts of benzoyl peroxide, with 300 mg found to be the most effective quantity.
  • The functionalized MWCNTs were analyzed using techniques like FT-IR, Raman Spectroscopy, and TEM, confirming that the process preserved the structure of the nanotubes.
