Abstract

As a preliminary study to produce functional nanocomposites in a heat dissipation device, we performed the direct synthesis of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) on the surface of alumina (Al2O3) powders. A thermal chemical vapor deposition (TCVD) system was used to grow CNTs directly on the Al2O3 surface. In order to investigate the growth behavior of CNTs, we varied both furnace temperature of the TCVD ranging from 700 to 850 ℃ and concentration of the ferritin-dissolved DI solution from 0.1 to 2.0 mg/mL. From the previous results, the gas composition and duration time for CNT growth were fixed as C2H4 : H2 = 30 : 500 (vol. %) and 10 min, respectively. Based on the analysis results, the optimized growth temperature and ferritin concentration were found to be 825 ℃ and 0.5 mg/mL, respectively. The obtained results could be adopted to achieve mass production of nanocomposites with heat dissipation functionality.
