Description
Industrial-scale use of carbon nanotube (CNT) materials and prototype development is limited by availability of economic, high throughput production methods. Recent investigations have demonstrated the feasibility of producing direct-spun macroscopic CNT materials via floating catalyst chemical vapour deposition. However, few quantitative results have been reported regarding process yield and correlations with product quality. Validation of results is therefore challenging as identification of the key fundamental process parameters is hindered. This first meta-analysis quantifies atomic input rates and correlates them with product outputs to map the current parameter space of 55 successful conditions leading to spinnable aerogels. All mapped processes fall within a bulk residence time of 5--150~s, operating temperature of 1100--1500~
