摘要
Different acid oxidation methods were systematically carried out to purify the SWNTs synthesized by CVD. The results show that the best purification process can produce over 98% pure single-wall carbon nanotubes within 2 h. In this process, it is found by Raman characterization that the amount of nanotubes with small diameters do not diminish within 3 h.
