Ph.D Thesis overview
My thesis work comprised the synthesis and characterization of multi-walled carbon
nanotubes (MWCNTs). MWCNTs were synthesized by chemical vapor deposition (CVD)
method. We have synthesized highly conductive MWCNTs onto different substrates using
waste tire Pyrolysis oil as a carbon precursor by spray Pyrolysis technique. The waste tire
material (non-biodegradable) was converted into Pyrolytic oil by pyrolysis process and the
obtained the pyrolytic yield was about 40.0 Wt%. The tire pyrolytic oil was converted as
MWCNTs onto quartz substrate using spray pyrolysis methods. Microscopic analysis (SEM &
TEM), XRD and Raman characterization of MWCNTs revealed that the synthesized CNTs
morphology, structure and functional group, respectively. The obtained MWCNTs were with
average diameter of ≈70 nm. These synthesized MWCNTs can be used as a counter electrode
in Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) applications.
