One of the major challenges in the fields of heterogeneous catalysis and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) synthesis via chemical vapour decomposition (CVD) method is lack of established theoretical model for direct selection of carbon precursor/metal catalyst matrix, which constitutes the most important mate...
