Abstract

The present work aspire to explore cost effective a natural renewable Eco-friendly green
precursor for the synthesis of Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) using methyl ester of Moringa
oleifera oil over Fe-Co impregnated Alumina support at 650 °C under N2 atmosphere. The
characterization of the as-grown carbon materials were analyzed by Scanning electron microscopy
(SEM), High resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), XRD and Raman spectroscopic
analysis. The bimetallic catalyst of Co and Fe supported on alumina gel particles improves the quality
and uniformity in diameters of CNTs. The diameters of as-synthesized nanotubes are in the range of 19
nm to 22 nm
