摘要
Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were irradiated by Gamma (gamma)-rays in air with absorbed doses of 25 and 50 kGy. As a result of gamma-ray irradiation, the inter-wall distance of MWCNTs was decreased and their graphitic order was improved. The reduction in inter-wall distance and structural ordering was improved with the increasing dosage of irradiation. Experimental evidences are provided by powder XRD and micro-Raman analyses.
