Generation of High Yields of Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs) Using Recycled Metal Catalysts
INV-20045 Background This technology relates to the upcycling of waste plastics to value-added products, in this case carbon nanomaterials, such as carbon nanotubes (CNTs). This invention is exemplified in a method where metallic substrates are used as catalysts for the growth of nanotubes. The feedstock consists of polymers or other organic materials,...

Generation of Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs) from Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) at the Presence of Additives
INV-20046 Background Generation of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) from feedstocks of polyethylene terephthalate (PET or PETE) polymers is challenging, unlike the generation of CNTs from polyolefinic polymers (polyethylene and polypropylene) or from polystyrene polymers. The low yield of gaseous pyrolyzates from PET, particularly the very low content...
