摘要：
A novel approach to synthesize platelet carbon nanofibers (PCNFs) is proposed by taking advantage of the flat interfaces between Fe nanoparticles and flake supports. PCNFs are produced when Fe nanoparticles are supported on flakes of mica, SiO2 and graphite, and only fishbone carbon nanofibers (FCNFs) are obtained when gamma-Al2O3 is used as a support. The crystalline perfection of PCNFs is found to depend on the dispersion of the catalyst and the surface roughness of the support. Perfect PCNFs are obtained when mica, which has a high surface tension and a very flat surface, is used as a support. The yield of PCNFs changes little with the nature of the support but is strongly related to the size of Fe nanoparticles and the preparation method of the Fe catalysts. (C) 2011 Elsevier B. V.
